Ep. 92 - Let's Talk Contracts with Lawyer Erica Canas
Today, we’re talking about one of the most important yet often overlooked aspects of running a design business: contracts. I’m thrilled to have Erica Canas, Esq., a Florida licensed attorney and interior design enthusiast, join us for this important conversation.
Erica is the founder of ID Law Shop, where she creates “best-practices” legal templates specifically for interior designers and architects. Her journey began when she couldn’t find legal templates that were actually tailored for her clients. She saw outdated forms, generic templates, and resources that weren’t created by real lawyers. With 16+ years of contract drafting experience under her belt, she’s made it her mission to provide legal resources that are actually useful for interior designers.
From contracts to intellectual property matters, Erica’s expertise is vast. She also offers full-service copyright and trademark registration to protect your designs and branding assets. And if you’re looking for custom drafting services, her flat-fee rates ensure you’re protected without the fear of runaway legal fees.
It’s an important episode today as we discuss legal protection for designers, how to structure your contracts, and why having the right legal documents in place can protect your business and help it thrive. Let’s dive in!
