With the engineering profession often adding significant value to many complex projects, it is not surprising that they are often the target for litigation.

With the term “engineer” covering so many different aspects of work from heating and ventilation work to geotechnical and ground work.  It is important that when looking for a Professional Indemnity broker, you choose one who has experience in dealing with engineering related policies.
