Howard Leder, as Preliminary of Abraham Warsaski, Proponent v. Marshall Spiegel, , Objectant. Joanne Rowland, Esq.

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division's order dismissing the objectants' legal malpractice counterclaim and awarded costs. The Court held that the alleged failure to anticipate evidentiary rulings did not constitute negligence and that the objectants did not establish a prima facie malpractice claim. Consequently, the objectants' remaining arguments were also found without merit.
