Why would you? They are deeply embarassing and lawyers try to make them go away as quickly and quietly as possible. However, the big ones do make the headlines - BUT, while I read Hackernews every day, and you likely do to - do you ALSO read law360, aboveTheLaw and the New York Law Journal? Because that is where you read about malpractice lawsuits. Not on techcrunch. And trust me - they happen all the goddamn time. All the goddamn time. There are lawyers who do nothing but sue other lawyers. There is an entire legal malpractice insurance industry. And, importantly, if you are a litigator - as in, someone who sues people for a living - your clients are already demonstrably the sorts of people who are willing to sue when they are pissed off. It is not unreasonable to assume that if things go wrong in these circumstances, people turn on their lawyers.
