Annual Meeting of Invited Attorneys 

Managing the Risks of Your International Practice

Our international practice white paper, part of our white paper series, is an informative discussion of some of the risks firms will face when broadening their practices internationally. From licensing laws, to tax regulations, to contracts, firms need to thoroughly prepare their business plans before beginning work in foreign countries.

Management Advisories

We have several Management Advisories that discuss various aspects of international practice.

• Going Global: Expanding Your Practice Overseas
• International Building Code
• International Practice
• Managing Decennial Liability Risk
• Offshore Outsourcing
• Securing Insurance for International Practice
• Tips for Practicing Outside the U.S.

VEP Module 2-6

Too often, design firms become involved in international projects without adequate preparation. Firms neglect to consider and appropriately respond to the risks posed by practicing overseas.
