Statute of limitations to sue a lawyer in NY State?

In New York, the statute of limitations for legal malpractice is 3 years from the date of the malpractice, but the period is tolled while the lawyer continues to represent you.  Thus, if your attorney blows a statute of limitations, you would have 3 years from that date to sue him/her.  However, if the attorney continues to represent you after that, trying to appeal the ruling that the limitations period had run, the 3 years would run from the date the attorney ceased to represent you in that matter.
