About ALA Contracts

 

Contracts Your Clients Will Understand

Looking to protect your interests and those of your clients but don't want to deal with complex legal documents? 

 

ALA Contracts - now online as fully editable and customizable documents - are the solution. Because ALA Contracts are concise and written in plain English, they are easy to understand and complete. Plus they are dependable. ALA's short-form legal documents have been protecting architects, contractors, and clients since 2002.  

 

No software to load! Only an Internet connection is needed to access ALA's secure forms, so you can create contracts using any computer.

Creating an ALA Contract is as simple as:

  1. Select and purchase a contract
  2. Add architect, contractor, and owner information, project description, and terms
  3. Save as a draft then export a pdf, or email a link (subscribers only), for client and lawyer review
  4. Finalize and print
