What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NH
I have been a consulting civil engineer operating as a sole proprietor for the past 5 years. I create roadway and drainage design plans for subdivisions for private developers. I do not carry errors and omissions insurance or liability insurance of any kind. I am now considering leaving the industry to pursue another career. If I form an LLC now, does that afford me any protection from lawsuits that may arise from my past projects? Is there a limit for how long liability for errors and omissions on design plans lasts, ie: at time limit for when I can no longer be pursued for liability? Do I need to carry insurance "til the day I die?"
Thank you for your wonderful service!
