What does tort liability mean? What does the lawyer's tort liability to the client mean?

Tort liability refers to the civil legal consequences that the civil subject should bear because of the implementation of tort. Tort liability means that anyone has an obligation to others, that is, he will not infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of others because of his own wrong (fault) behavior, otherwise it will constitute infringement and be responsible to the injured party. Infringement is basically illegal.

The tort liability of lawyers to clients refers to the legal liability for compensation for losses caused by lawyers' illegal practice or mistakes.

Article 5 of the Tort Liability Law stipulates that if other laws have special provisions on tort liability, those provisions shall prevail.

Article 54 of China's Lawyers Law, which was revised and implemented on June 1 2008, stipulates that if a lawyer practices illegally or causes losses to his client due to his fault, his law firm shall be liable for compensation. After making compensation, a law firm may claim compensation from a lawyer who has committed intentional or gross negligence.
