About this Event

Location: Alder & Tweed, Commerce & Design - 1C, Floor 1 

Design projects are complex. Multiple vendors, layered timelines, deposits, retainers, and change orders create risk if the structure behind them is not solid and when that structure breaks down, your profit and your protection are the first casualties.  

In this straightforward discussion, Wendy Estela, of Estela Law, PLLC and Designed Counsel, shares what she regularly sees in design firms and what she wishes owners understood earlier. Together with LuAnn Nigara, business strategist and host of A Well-Designed Business® podcast, known for connecting expert advice to real-world operations, she will address common contract gaps, documentation mistakes, unclear payment terms, and preventable compliance issues that quietly undermine otherwise strong businesses. 

This is not a legal lecture. It is a practical conversation about how strong agreements, organized processes, and accurate financial tracking create stability in your firm. 

If you are responsible for client contracts or financial oversight, this session will give you language and insight you can use immediately.
