§ 40-3-300. Prohibition on entering into contract for professional services on any basis other than direct negotiations; exceptions.
An architect may not enter into a contract for professional services on any basis other than direct negotiation thereby precluding participation in any system requiring a comparison of compensation. However, an architect may state compensation to a prospective client in direct negotiation where architectural services necessary to protect the public health, safety, and welfare have been defined.
