Third-Party Claims Against Other Law Firms Which Advised Plaintiff.

The First Department, in a full-fledged opinion by Justice Saxe, determined a law firm sued for malpractice could assert third party claims against other law firms which advised the plaintiff on the same matter.  There is a substantive discussion of similar third party actions in legal malpractice cases.  Millenium Import, LLC v Reed Smith LLP, et al, Index 603350/07; 591100-07 First Dept. 1-24-13
