Why do I need insurance?
In many cases, construction managers like architects and engineers are contractually required to purchase professional liability coverage. But when coverage is not mandated by a contract, why should a construction manager carry it?
Construction managers encompass a broad range of services and roles within the project delivery process. Therefore, the ways in which a construction manager defines and carries out services can have far-reaching consequences with respect to potential liability and professional liability coverage.
Professional liability coverage allows you to transfer this risk to an insurance company. You
pay a premium so that, if a lawsuit is brought against you, the insurance company will not only pay out damage awards on a covered claim, but also pay your defense costs.
