There are more than 80,000 lawyers licensed to practice law in the state of Illinois and many of them commit mistakes. Some of these mistakes rise to a level of legal malpractice and some do not. Lawyers love to make money - everyone knows it, we are just willing to say it - and if you had a medical malpractice case there would be firms beating down your door to help you. So why is it so hard to find a legal malpractice lawyer? There is no one specific answer to this question, but there are a few common reasons:

1. Although it's completely hypocritical, since lawyers have to see each other in court, at social gatherings, bar association meetings, etc., many are afraid to "rock the boat" or create bad feelings at other firms. Others just don't want to be unpopular.
2. Some lawyers are just worried about conflicts of interest.
3. Many cases are hard to prove or can't show damages that would justify taking a case on a contingency basis. As a result lawyers just avoid them altogether.

In reality, probably because lawyers are business people and like to make money, there are a handful of firms that take on legal malpractice cases, but don't actively market their services. In other words, you may not see legal malpractice listed on their website, but these lawyers will take the "right" case. To be blunt, that means they think they can make a lot of money off of the case.
