Contract Tips & Best Practices

Always Have It in Writing

Verbal agreements are hard to prove. Putting terms in writing protects both parties and prevents misunderstandings.

Customize to Your Needs

Templates are starting points. Modify clauses to match your specific situation. When in doubt, consult an attorney.

Understand Governing Law

Different states have different rules. Choose your home state for easier enforcement and dispute resolution.

Know Your Risk Levels

Some clauses are standard and fair. Others favor one party heavily. Look for risky clauses and negotiate.

Get Everything Signed

Both parties should sign and date the final contract. Digital signatures are legally binding in most states.

Review Before Signing

Don't rush. Read the entire contract carefully. Ask questions if anything is unclear before you sign.
