Conquering the Professional Liability Application

It's that that time of year again. You just received your professional liability insurance renewal application, and now you must begin the task of completing the application.
As daunting a task as completing this form might be, it really represents an opportunity for design professionals to reduce their total cost of risk. Many of the questions on the form serve as a risk management audit for your firm's operations. This seminar will provide insight into why questions on the application are asked and the implications of your answers.
