Description

An essential reference for practitioners, emphasizing how legal concepts have an effect on the process of bringing architectural vision to reality.

Law for Architects: What You Want to Know guides design professionals through the daunting landscape where design and construction meet the legal system. It provides an introduction―written in clear, reader-friendly language―to issues that arise at each stage in the practice of architecture. For architects starting or building their own practice: Why do I need a written agreement with my clients? Why do I need insurance? How do I organize my firm? For seasoned architects taking into account retirement: How do I transfer ownership in my company? How can I get pleasure from the good will I helped to build? For students who need to learn more about the practicalities of starting out: Why is it important to have a license? Isn’t it enough to have a degree in architecture? What are my rights as an employee? It also addresses the perennial questions that concern architects: How do I offer protection to myself from being sued? How do I offer protection to my intellectual property rights in my work? and a lot more.

Law for Architects identifies the legal issues that lurk in each corner of your design practice and helps you determine what questions you wish to have to ask.
