Why it important to get your business contracts from a business attorney?  Shouldn’t an experienced business attorney craft your business contracts?  How can the proprietary library of proven, battle-tested contracts, corporate documents and due diligence checklists add protections while proving to be cost-effective when compared with forms from a download site?

Sure, you can download boilerplate contracts from some website.  Then you have to tailor them to your unique application.  By the way, this is California.  California has some of the complex and comprehensive business laws and commercial codes in the country.  Boilerplate simply means “not adequate.”  If you want it to be ready for California business, the site will be happy to recommend or provide an attorney to help you customize it for an extra fee.

Proven Business Contracts Custom Tailored to Your Unique Application

Watkins Firm business contract attorneys protect your interests, save you money and reduce or eliminate disputes and lawsuits.  The key is to deploy proven business contracts custom tailored to your unique application.

Why is it important to have an experienced business attorney craft your business contracts for San Diego and California? The answer is contained within a well crafted business contract.  Experienced business professionals understand the importance of having a sound, well constructed legal contract.  They understand that poorly drafted contracts leave far too much room for interpretation, and fail to address what could go wrong and how it will be handled.  Whenever a contract fails to provide these answers, the parties will face expensive, time consuming disputes and business litigation.

A judge will have to “fill in” the blanks left in the original agreement.  This requires extensive legal work, depositions, as well discovery of all related conversation, documents, texts, emails and other communications.  The lawyers for each side argue each point before the judge who must sift through the information and reconstruct the type of contract that should have been in place to begin with.

Pro tip: Whoever provided the contract loses in an argument over vague or unclear terms or language.

Well crafted business contracts avoid failure.  They clearly establish the roles and responsibilities of the parties, quality of work, deadlines, financial details and the “benefit of the bargain.”  Strong contracts anticipate anything that could go wrong and address it in advance.  When a contract dispute arises, the contract should quickly and cost-effectively guide the parties through the dispute (i.e. mediation or arbitration) without the need for extensive litigation.

Why Should an Experienced Business Attorney Craft your Business Contracts?

Why should an experienced business attorney craft your business contracts based upon an existing, proven contract?  We are beginning with a contract that has already proven itself in hundreds, if not thousands of business transactions.  A well crafted business contract is a road map.  It is like a referee who guides each party smoothly through the transaction, holding them accountable to the agreement and the successful fulfillment of its terms.

Is it worth it?  Is it worth risking your company and all your hard work on a download form contract?  What do you have to lose?  Money.  Pure and simple.  The small fee for a proven, battle tested contract from our proprietary library and custom tailored by our experienced business contract attorneys at the Watkins Firm is pennies when compared to the thousands and thousands of dollars that must be invested to litigate a poorly executed business contract.
