The scope of personal liability

Abstract

Many instances of surveyors' liability in negligence concern the errors of an individual made with regard to one property on one occasion. However, the increasing role of surveyors as part of a design or management team makes it necessary to consider the respective liabilities of the team members. Moreover, the continuing debate about relaxing the rules for turning surveyors' practices into companies will turn attention to the dividing line between individual and corporate responsibility.
