Professional Liability Insurance for Land Surveyors

Professional liability insurance (E&O Insurance) for Land Surveyors is the most important coverage a surveyor can purchase. Liability is as high as it has ever been, and the best surveys can have errors. There is also the risk that the client will disagree with you and you could end up having a judge decide your fate. A judge could side with the client; this is
where you will be very fortunate to have your professional liability insurance in place. Some of the many types of Survey work that needs professional liability insurance:


■ Boundary Surveys
■ Elevation or Floodplain Surveys
■ Geodetic Surveys
■ GIS and LIS Surveying and Mapping
■ Hydrographic and Underwater Surveys
■ Construction Staking
■ Mining and other Subsurface Surveys
■ Topographic Surveys
■ Subdivision Surveys
■ Route Surveys
■ Registered Land Surveys
■ Record or As-Built Surveys
■ Quantity Surveys
■ Site Plan Surveys

Always consult an expert before deciding what type and level of coverage is right for your firm.
