I am a skilled and experienced Contract Attorney and in-house counsel. I read, write, and edit contracts and agreements. This is all that I do. I can summarize, outline, point out liabilities, edit, redline, draft agreements. I can focus on one area or examine the entire agreement. I do Agreements, MSA's, SOW's, MFA's, NDA's, etc. I have extensive experience with the service industry and staffing agreements too. Many people believe they can review and read a contract. But it does take experience and skill to see the finer points and the important clauses. It is easy to have sections contradict each other or go down the slippery slope of unintended consequences. I've spotted issues in nearly every contract, especially from those drafted by major corporations! Don't assume you know the finer points or sign blindly without counsel. A contract is the framework for your entire business relationship, how you are paid, what you do, and how it can be dissolved.. Contracts and Agreements should not be, and need not be a hostile experience. It is a complex document that takes knowledge and experience to master. ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT
