Opportunity for independent architects and engineers is significant: Architects are already three times more likely than average to operate as sole proprietors, and the BLS predicts 17 percent growth in architecture employment by 2022, providing a robust environment to launch a new firm. Engineers who operate as contractors can earn 10 to 15 percent more than those who accept positions as fulltime employees.
But as insureon CEO
Beyond anecdotal evidence, though, the hard numbers don't lie: 66 percent of claims against architects are made by clients, and 88 percent of architects agree that "scope creep," or disagreement about a project's limits, is a major source of these conflicts. While any legal claim can be costly, business insurance can cover many of those costs.
