Abigail K. Dibadj

Lawyers’ Liability
Abigail is part of a national team comprising more than 50 attorneys, each contributing related experience along with a keen understanding of the underlying matters at the heart of malpractice claims. Such claims can range from the most basic services to the most sophisticated, including complex securities transactions, environmental claims, intellectual property disputes, and more. Her defense of an attorney begins with an immediate and comprehensive assessment of the underlying matter as well as the malpractice claim, with a focus on early dismissal through pre-answer dispositive motions.

Security
Premises security lawsuits are among the fastest-growing segment of personal injury actions and include allegations of negligence such as failure to properly train security personnel, failure to warn against the potential for criminal activity, and negligent supervision of employees. Abigail works with risk managers and security providers to offer guidance and suggestions for claim avoidance. She helps ensure that security undertakings are duly documented and preserved and assists when a serious incident occurs, and long before a lawsuit is initiated, often meeting on short notice with appropriate personnel at the scene. She is careful to preserve witness statements, records, investigative requirements and other items essential to preparing a defense against a potential lawsuit.
