Frequently asked

How is this different from other industry-standard forms?

Unlike forms written for the whole construction industry, this agreement is drafted specifically from the architect’s perspective, in plain language.

Can I edit it for my project?

Yes. It arrives as an editable Microsoft Word file, so you can adapt names, scope, fees, and project-specific terms while keeping the attorney-drafted structure intact.

Part of the ALA contract library — attorney-drafted agreements in clear language, written for the way architects actually work. Four contracts cost more than a year of ALA membership, which includes every document free.
