Talk with a lawyer buddy made me rethink my whole contract template
My friend Sarah who does corporate law took one look at my service agreement and pointed out 3 places where I basically had zero liability protection. She said one specific line about 'unforeseen delays' could have been the thing that let a client sue me for missing a deadline even if my hard drive crashed. Has anyone else had their contracts reviewed by someone outside their industry and got totally blindsided?
Thirty years ago I hired a lawyer over a contract dispute and it saved me thousands in the long run. Sometimes a real threat is worth taking seriously.
