WHO IS CONSIDERED A DESIGN PROFESSIONAL UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW?

Home - Design Professional Malpractice - Who is considered a design professional
under California law?
* July 31, 2020
* Design Professional Malpractice
Design professionals throughout the Bay Area make communities efficient,
attractive, and safe. Their education and skills provide invaluable services to
local economies as they create designs for construction, improvement, and
redevelopment. Many design professionals are licensed and subject to regulations
to ensure that their work is compliant with mandated standards.
The term “design professional” covers many different disciplines. This post will
discuss some of the professions covered by this designation, but readers are
reminded that this post does not offer any legal counsel or advice. Questions
about design professional designations, liability, and other legal issues should
be directed to California-based building and construction law attorneys.
WHAT IS A DESIGN PROFESSIONAL?
Under the California Civil Code, a design professional can be one of several
different types of specialists:
* A licensed architect;
* A licensed landscape architect;
* A registered professional engineer; and
* A licensed land surveyor.
Individuals who have the designation “design professional” are not only subject
to the laws and regulations of the state, but also the rules of conduction and
responsibility of their professions. Challenges to the work and integrity of
design professionals can therefore impose both legal and professional roadblocks
to their careers.
WHAT LEGAL PROBLEMS CAN IMPACT DESIGN PROFESSIONALS?
Whenever a problem comes up during or after the construction of a building
project, any party that was involved in its planning or development may find
itself facing legal and professional challenges. A design professional may be
accused of violating the terms of a contract or failing to provide a safe design
or plan for construction. They may face claims that they failed to investigate
the physical conditions of the build location or that their design led to
losses, bodily harm, or other damages.
Facing legal and professional claims can jeopardize the ability of a design
professional to work in their field. Legal representation is available from
attorneys who work with design professionals to address these and other legal
issues.
