ARCHITECTS & ENGINEERS (A&E)

DESIGN FLAWS HAPPEN.

Civil engineers are more likely to get sued than electrical engineers.

Errors and omissions claims are often the result of design flaws as well as imprecise cost estimates, problems with subcontractors or inaccurate inspections of completed work. To mitigate those risks, there are over 30 classes of Architects and Engineers (A&E) for whom we’ve provided professional liability/E&O coverage for more than a decade. Think of it as protection for the myriad of licensed design professionals involved in the building trade: architects, civil engineers, land surveyors, electrical engineers, interior designers, traffic engineers, LEED consultants, project managers, and more. All are vulnerable to potential legal action during the course of a project. Business Risk Partners offers comprehensive, competitive coverage for small to middle market firms. With our customized A&E form, it’s easy for us to meet specific coverage needs. Your clients can breathe easier knowing their coverage is backed by the financial strength of our A rated partner.
