In this episode of the Wealthy Woman Lawyer® podcast, I sit down with Mark Bassingthwaighte, a seasoned attorney and national risk manager with ALPS—the nation’s largest direct writer of lawyers’ malpractice insurance. With decades of experience helping more than 1,200 law firms manage risk, Mark has seen it all—and he’s sharing what you need to know now to protect your firm and your future.
Listen in as Mark and I explore:
- The common claim that still ranks #1 in frequency year after year—and how to avoid it.
- Why your biggest malpractice risk may have nothing to do with your legal skills.
- What solo and small firm owners *don’t know* about cybercrime (and why it could cost them everything).
- The truth about accidental clients and why a casual conversation could put your law license at risk.
- What attorneys often get wrong about conflicts of interest and trust accounting—and how to do better.
- The essential policies, coverage, and documentation practices every modern law firm needs now.
- Why prioritizing wellness is more than self-care—it’s malpractice prevention.
