* Attorneys on staff who have been in private practice, focused on construction law and general counsel for engineering and architecture firms
* A member of the American College of Construction Lawyers (ACCL)
* A former professional liability underwriter for engineering firms
* A licensed engineer who served on the risk management committee of one of the largest engineering firms in the country
* A former Brownfield developer and environmental consultant
Said Robin S. Greenleaf, P.E. LEED AP, Trustee, "The ACEC BIT program provides access to some of the very best risk management strategies and insurance products specifically designed by engineers for engineers. Nowhere else will you find a more comprehensive, cost-effective program engineered for peace of mind. We have long known and respected the team of top professionals at Greyling/EPIC and we are confident that they will help us take our Business Insurance Trust to new levels of excellence for the benefit of participating ACEC member firms."
For decades, Greyling/EPIC has been a proud member of ACEC National and has actively participated in the affairs of many state MOs.
