Attоrney Lоyst represented Plаintiff Juliа in а state law emplоyment discrimination lawsuit against defendant Circle Company. The court dismissed Plaintiff Julia's claim with prejudice for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. Circle Company's lawyer believed that Attorney Loyst had not conducted an adequate factual or legal investigation before filing the complaint. Although Circle Company could have sought sanctions against Attorney Loyst, Circle Company could recover more of the legal expenses it had incurred in obtaining dismissal of the lawsuit by suing Attorney Loyst in a separate negligence action. As a result, Circle Company's lawyer filed a negligence action against Attorney Loyst rather than a motion for sanctions. Circle Company's lawyer is confident that she can prove that Attorney Loyst failed to use reasonable care to investigate Plaintiff Julia's claim before filing the lawsuit against Circle Company. Is Attorney Loyst likely to be subject to civil liability to Circle Company in the negligence action?
