1Opinion of the Court

ANDREASEN, Justice.

Barbara and Bobby Holsapple and Glen Randolph appeal from the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of James McGrath and his law firm McGrath & McGrath. We find the district court erred in concluding no genuine issue of material fact existed with respect to the claim regarding the deed prepared by McGrath. However, we find the court was correct in its ruling with respect to the claims regarding negligence in drafting the will. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand.
