Architects sometimes get blindsided by accusations of professional error, omission or negligence. They struggle with the hidden risks that come with running an architectural practice, as it can be devastating—professionally and personally—to invest countless hours in a project, only to face one claim that threatens everything.

Well, what if one could navigate these risks with confidence? What if architects could protect their practice and reputation while continuing to do what they love?

Welcome to "The Claims-Free Architect", formerly known as “Architects’ Claims Stories”, renamed to better reflect the podcast’s mission. Brought to you by

From these actual experiences, architects will gain the insights needed to identify potential risks and learn how to manage, minimize, mitigate, avoid or even accept them, and ultimately, better protect your architectural practice from claims.
