es: getting paid and not getting sued. While it would certainly be short and sweet to simply get a customer to sign a piece of paper which states “I promise to pay you and I promise not to sue you,” that kind of cutesy solution is rarely legally effective for the intended pur- pose. So maybe paying a few hundred dollars for a multi-page document isn’t what you had in mind, but unless you went to law school you should probably trust that a lawyer to whom you are paying a fee is go- ing to make sure everything that needs to be in the contract is in there, and things that don’t need to be in there have been left out. Are you really in a position to make these types of decisions? And therein lies the problem with getting a form off
the internet: your lawyer isn’t there to review it. And if you think it “looks fine” to you, then what comes to mind is the coffee cup adage “Please Don’t Confuse Your Google Search With My Law Degree.”
Even routine transactions like horse sales and leases
are best documented with a custom contract and not a fillable form. Not every lease includes a purchase option. Some horses are paid for in installments. In that instance, will the horse be delivered after the first installment or the last? Different states have dif- ferent requirements for documenting a horse sale: if your contract doesn’t have the correct disclosures the whole deal might be voidable. Do you really want to have to give back the money and take back the horse? Do you really want to give the buyer an opening to do just that? Using a “form” that you found, or a contract that you
plagiarized or put together from a variety of sources, ultimately comes at a cost. That cost is the risk that it’s a bad contract and your decision to use it may end up costing you more in attorneys’ fees than the cost of having an attorney draft the contract at the outset.
