What is an "Engineering Firm"?
(OP)
Can a firm call itself an engineering firm if they have PE's on staff, yet the principal's of the firm are not PE's? Or can a firm be an "engineering firm" only if all of the principal's are Professional Engineers? I have heard conflicting information ....
Thanks.
Thanks.

A construction company here was founded by a PE and had the "engineering" term in the title. When he sold out, they were required to remove the term since the new owners had zero PE's on staff.

It is also an ethics violation for a licensed engineer to work for an unlicensed firm practicing professional engineering.

I would consult your state board and the secretary of state.
