ADU Drawings/ Plans - Non-licensed Architect

[Alex Ballesteros]

I was recommended someone from my general contractor to provide ADU drawings/ plans in order to get the process started, and this person who was recommended is not licensed but works within the field as an apprentice and does freelance work on the side creating ADU drawings/ plans, so i wanted to ask anyone with personal experience or knowledge if the person creating the ADU drawings needs a license? Any cons or downside to this? And any additional info or insight on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
