Writing contracts that comply with law in your state isn't easy. A contract that doesn't comply could leave you with no
way to collect. You need contracts that:
Fit your jobs exactly,
Contain your state's required statutes and attachments,
Will stand up in court should a disagreement occur.
Many contractors use boilerplate contracts. That's a mistake. No contract fits all jobs and state contract requirements. You'll be unprotected
should a disagreement occur and you end up in court. Doing business on a handshake or on notes scribbled on an envelope is worse -- likely to earn
an invitation with the state license board.
Now there's a better way. Write perfect contracts in minutes by answering simple interview questions:
No legal background needed.
All state-required statutes, attachments, or warranties included.
You create contracts as detailed or as simple as the job and your state requires.
