In the District Court of Johnson County, Kansas, Plaintiffs filed a professional negligence and legal malpractice suit against their client, alleging a breach of duty in their role as conservator. Their client asserted that, despite working near the co-defendants for many years, they never established a relationship with the Plaintiffs and therefore owed them no duty. Baker Sterchi filed and argued a Motion to Dismiss on these grounds. In a rare outcome for this jurisdiction, the Court concluded that their client did not owe a duty to the Plaintiffs, granted their Motion and dismissed the claims against their client.
