[thelist] Help with cont[r]acts.

I had spoken to a lawyer about contracts while in business class.  Basically
what it comes down to is that you write a contract or rewrite a current
contract to suit your business, the client reads it, and either signs it or
not.  What makes the contract legally binding is the clients signature.
Once signed it becomes a legal contract and subject to any breach of
contract elements that were agreed upon when signing.

Get a lawyer to do that - here in Canada you can usually get it done for
~$250.00.  It's worth it in the end when you have to collect. ;-)

There's nothing worse than a client reneging on a deal 'cause they found a
loophole in a contract.  And clients expect it, you don't need to worry
about coming across as too strong or harsh.  I even make my friends sign the
contract....

Anyway.  Hope that helps....
