PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Email has easily become the most prevalent means of communication used in the construction industry today, especially for design professionals. What would have been communicated in a formal letter, transmittal, or submittal in the “old days” is now frequently communicated in an informal, hastily written email. While email is a fast and effective communication tool, it is legally valid, permanent and discoverable— and the misuse or abuse of email carries significant risks in the event of a dispute. Few architects and engineers realize that a single, inarticulate email can destroy the defense of an otherwise very defensible claim, resulting in significant liability for the design firm. 

In this webinar, you'll:


  • Review the rules of civil procedure and electronic document production—and how email can be used against design professionals in the event of a claim or dispute
  • Understand the realities of email communication for design professionals and the common circumstances that can lead to damaging emails
  • Learn the importance of establishing and consistently following email communication policies
  • Discover email best practices on which all employees should be trained
