Throughout history, engineers have crafted the constructs of our civilization which have stood the test of time and have served not only their clients but the people who occupy and visit these establishments. Indeed, becoming a successful engineer requires flexibility, strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as an inquisitive mind so as to meet the standards of the clients.
Due to the fact that engineers are still merely human, committing errors is possible and sometimes unavoidable. And as you may know it, a seemingly small and unintentional mistake, can have major consequences. These include paying a significant sum of money for the damages done as well as other liabilities charged to the engineer or engineering firm. The lawsuit filed against you will continue to be heard in court; but if you have specialized engineers liability insurance, your pockets will be saved from paying all the damages.
