The IAS court properly determined that plaintiff's breach of contract and fraud claims are essentially legal malpractice claims that are barred by the three-year statute of limitations ( see CPLR 214; Matter of R.M. Kliment Frances Halsband, Architects [ McKinsey Co., Inc.], 3 NY3d 538, 543).
The IAS court properly dismissed plaintiff's third cause of action alleging a breach of the retainer agreement and her sixteenth cause of action alleging a violation of Judiciary Law § 487. Those causes of action are based on issues that were fully litigated in prior actions and determined adversely to her. Thus, she may not revisit those issues in this action (see generally Melnitzky v LoPreto, 8 AD3d 4). We have considered and rejected plaintiff's other contentions.
