AMBRIZ v. KELEGIAN PART II
Where, in premises liability action underlying her legal malpractice suit, plaintiff who had been raped in apartment complex by an intruder presented evidence that male intruders had made repeated unauthorized entries to the premises and that there was no evidence of forced entry at the time she was attacked and thus raised a triable issue of fact as to whether the complex owners' failure to properly maintain its doors and locks was a substantial factor in causing her injury trial court in malpractice case erred in granting summary judgment in favor of plaintiff's former attorneys on the ground that she would not have been able to establish the element of causation in the underlying action, which was dismissed on summary judgment.
