This program will discuss sources for surveyor liability. The workshop will cover what constitutes liability and what the surveyor can do to avoid and prevent liability. The workshop will also discuss what the surveyor can and should do when the surveyor is made a defendant in a civil lawsuit. The surveyor will understand what actions to take to prevent liability or defend themselves against a liability claim.
