How Minnesota Law Affects Your Professional Malpractice Case
A Minnesota professional malpractice case holds a licensed professional accountable for falling below the standard of their profession and causing financial loss. Attorney, accounting, and financial-advisor malpractice are the most common, and expert testimony from someone in the same field is almost always required to establish the breach.
Damages equal the financial loss the professional's error actually caused — what you lost or failed to gain because of it. In legal malpractice, Minnesota typically requires proving the "case within a case": that you would have won the underlying matter but for the attorney's error. Engagement letters, billing records, and the professional's own file are critical evidence.
Minnesota generally allows about 6 years to file, longer than the national average of 2.4 years, often running from when you discovered (or should have discovered) the error. For attorney malpractice, the "continuous representation" rule can pause the clock while the lawyer keeps handling the matter.
