Spending in the construction industry now exceeds $4 trillion and let’s face it; construction is risky business. Read the daily headlines and you will most likely find a story highlighting a lawsuit in the construction industry involving allegations of construction defect or major property damage to a building. Even worse, you will find stories about accidents on jobsites involving a fall from scaffolding or a crane collapse, sometimes resulting in fatalities.
