The Risk Management Committee presents...
For almost a year, ACEC Oregon and design professionals nervously awaited the opinion of the Oregon Supreme Court in the case of Harris v. Suniga. When the decision was recently handed down by the court, the nervousness proved to be justified. On Tuesday, June 10, the Risk Management Committee will present an informative breakfast panel discussion concerning how this important court decision impacts design professionals’ liability exposure. Attorneys Steve Day, Northwest Geotech, Inc.; Jon Larson, Marvin, Chorzempa & Larson P.C.; and Stan Austin, Miller Nash, LLP will explore the implications of the ruling for firms performing work in Oregon. The panel will also discuss current Washington law, ACEC’s efforts in the Harris case, and best practices for reducing risk. Click here for more information.
