Description: The economic loss doctrine is a legal principle with broad practical effects on design practice. Recognizing its application can avoid potential "unlimited liability" for claims, and enforce mutually negotiated contractual terms and provisions. Attendees will learn the status of the economic loss doctrine in jurisdictions across the country and how to recognize it in design practices. Using doctrine knowledge, firms can interface effectively with insurance carriers or third-party claims professionals to handle legal disputes.
