Business owners put their companies at risk when a new project gets under way. With even the best advance preparation, things can still go wrong, with the potential for injury, property damage and financial loss lurking in the background. If you are the project owner who is hiring multiple subcontractors, you may lie awake at night worried about how actions not under your control may lead to accidents, unexpected developments, potential liabilities and unavoidable delays. If you are one of the subcontractors, you may have won the bid on thin margins that could lead to a rushed schedule and careless work practices, while the fine print in your contract may include unanticipated liability for your business.
