SUMMARY ORDER

Plaintiff Jacqueline Grosso, proceeding pro se, appeals from the dismissal of her legal malpractice complaint against defendant Mario Biaggi, Jr. for failure to state a claim. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history of the ease, and the issues on appeal.

We review de novo a dismissal pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6), see Chambers v. Time Warner, Inc., 282 F.3d 147, 152 (2d Cir.2002), reading pro se complaints with “special solicitude” and interpreting them to raise the “strongest [claims] that [they] suggest[ ],” Hill v. Curcione, 657 F.3d 116, 122 (2d Cir.2011) (internal quotation marks omitted). To survive a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6), the complaint must plead “enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007).

An independent review of the record and relevant case law reveals no error in the district court’s order granting defendant’s motion to dismiss, as, for the reasons stated in the court’s order, Grosso failed to state a claim for relief that was plausible on its face. Accordingly, we affirm substantially for the reasons set forth by the district court in its thorough and well-reasoned Memorandum Opinion and Order entered on July 17, 2013.

We have considered Grosso’s remaining arguments and find them to be without merit. Accordingly* we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
