Delhi Court Dismisses Suit Against Lawyer Over Alleged Deficiency in Service

A Delhi court has dismissed a lawsuit against Supreme Court lawyer TV George, which accused him of professional negligence, conflict of interest, and deficiency in service while representing a client in a medical negligence case against Tata Steel’s Tata Main Hospital (TMH), Jamshedpur.

Additional Senior Civil Judge Anuradha Jindal ruled that mere dissatisfaction with legal strategy does not constitute harassment or misconduct.

The court rejected the demand for a refund of ₹97,500 in legal fees and compensation, stating that no fraudulent misrepresentation or coercion was proven.

It also dismissed claims of conflict of interest, finding no evidence that George had acted against the client’s interests.
