Signing, Stamping and Sealing Others’ Designs

Perhaps you've already faced this type of situation: One of your best clients comes to you with a special request. He has a set of construction plans ready to go for a new mixed-use project combining retail and residential space. The problem is, the designer of those plans is not licensed to practice in your state.

Your client wants to know if you would be willing to sign, stamp and seal the drawings for them. They say they will make it worth your while to spend a few hours looking over the construction documents and, assuming you don't find significant design errors or other problems, it should be a quick and easy task. If you do find some design details you're not comfortable with, the original designer will be available for consultation and to make any revisions required.
