When you join our society, you can approach any job with the confidence you have the backing of a society of land professionals and the best protection from professional indemnity claims. Our insurance policies are unique, underwritten by major providers and exclusive to our members.
The Claims Committee comprises surveying and valuer professionals. You can contact them any time for confidential advice about how to mitigate the risk of a situation developing into a claim. If a claim is made, the Claims Committee forms an intermediary between you and the insurer, with the goal of resolving the claim as quickly as possible.
LPMS arranges insurance policies written specifically for surveyors and valuers. These policies are underwritten by leading market insurers, and are only available through LPMS. Policies are updated regularly to provide continuity of indemnity provisions.
LPMS has an active continuing education programme. Receive regular updates with case studies, topics of interest, and more.
LPMS maintains an extensive resource library for members providing information on practical risk management and claims avoidance. This is accessible online to members only.

Subsection (1) of the Cadastral Survey Act 2002 states that if an error is found in a cadastral survey dataset affecting any title under the Land Transfer Act 1952 or tenure under any other Act, the Surveyor General may, in writing, require the cadastral surveyor responsible for the error to undertake the work necessary to correct the error.” This potential “personal liability” for the consequential losses arising from this circumstance is able to be covered by our policy.
Ensuring you have continuous Professional Indemnity cover is vital for protection against future claims. Download more information about The Importance of Continuity of Indemnity.
