: : How often if ever do client sue their patent attorneys. I was at a party this past weekend, and an attorney told me that sometimes clients have been known to sue their patent attorneys. He did not say whay, but I assume because of shoddy work. Am I right? Why is this? Dear Tracey, I an not aware of many lawsuits by clients against patent attorneys. As I understand it there is usually no liability where a lawyer gets a patent which in itself is valuless unless there is some over fraud M.
