Praise for the first edition:
‘A must-read piece of CPD and an important practice information resource: it takes a practical and straightforward approach to explaining the complexities of the law as it relates to the work of architects.’ Angela Brady, RIBA President
‘What makes this book particularly valuable is that it goes much further than an accessible guide to the law: it explains its subtleties and implications as they impact on the professional life of the architect.’ Nick Mirchandani, Director, ArchitecturePLB
‘A core reference material for architects in an era of austerity where it is important that risks are managed and indeed are in line with the level of fee agreed.’ Dale Sinclair, Director, Dyer.
