Fix your template contract guide
GET A CONTRACT YOU UNDERSTAND AND FEEL PROUD TO SEND TO CLIENTS IN AN HOUR.
And rest assured knowing it has all the terms you need to protect your business, get paid on time, and get an easy "yes" from your client.
YOU DIDN’T START YOUR BUSINESS TO WORK FOR FREE
Spending hours doing extra work you didn't anticipate isn’t a “normal” cost of doing business; it’s a sign that your contract is missing some key components like:
A clearly defined scope of work
An assessment/audit period to review your client's situation and adjust accordingly if it's materially different from what they initially described
A process for charging the client when the project scope changes.
Lots of folks assume problems like scope creep and project delays are either normal, but if you're still dealing with these issues, then your contract isn't pulling its weight. Period.
So if you’re a person who often says “I expect timeline delays. That’s pretty normal,” then maybe it’s time to define a new normal with a contract that honors your time and energy and protects your business interests.
THERE’S AN HOUR STANDING BETWEEN YOU AND A CONTRACT THAT ACCURATELY REFLECTS YOUR EXPERTISE
The TRUTH IS, YOUR CONTRACT AS WRITTEN ISN’T CUTTING THE MUSTARD.
Maybe it's because you asked chatGPT to write it, or you found a template online, or you got one from a business coach.
Or maybe it’s because, like many freelancers and consultants, you don’t have any idea what needs to go in a contract and you don’t know the first thing about using contracts to your advantage.
that’s because you don’t know which legal issues impact your business or how to address them in your contract in a way that protects your business.
Well, let’s put your days or not knowing to rest. The Fix-Your-Template Guide gives you the mission critical information you need to get a contract that:
Gives you the leverage you need to avoid common pitfalls like scope creep and project delays;
Is written in plain language so you AND your client can actually understand it;
Is tailored to your actual business needs and the needs of your client.
"This guide has already saved me! I won a grant and needed to hire subcontractors. I used the guide to write their contracts and it helped me manage some compliance risks and other liability issues in the contract so I wouldn't be on the hook if I didn't receive the funds in time. Spoiler alert: I didn't receive the funds on time, but the guide kept me from having to pay people before I had the money to pay them."

YOU DON’T NEED TO BE A LEGAL EXPERT TO GET AN EFFECTIVE CONTRACT THAT PROTECTS YOUR BUSINESS
You just need to be equipped with a practical skillset that helps you identify the legal issues that matter to your business and the sample language you need to include in your contract to manage them. That’s exactly what the Fix Your Template Guide does.
With the help of the Guide, you’ll be able to:
IDENTIFY THE EXACT ISSUES YOUR CONTRACT NEEDS TO ADDRESS:
Figure out which terms matter for your business and why so you can easily explain it to a client if they have a question.
COPY/PASTE THE RIGHT LANGUAGE INTO YOUR CONTRACT:
Once you identify which terms matter for your business, swipe the sample language directly from the guide and put it in your contract.
You’ll be so glad you took the time to get this right:
WRITE CONTRACTS THAT GET A QUICK YES FROM YOUR CLIENTS:
Skip the dense legalese that freaks out your clients and use the guide to write a plain language contract that your client actually understands.

YOU NEED A CONTRACT THAT WORKS SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR BUSINESS, NOT ANOTHER TEMPLATE
Got a template already? That's great! But a template is just a starting point. The Fix-Your-Template guide is designed to bridge the gap between that generic contract your found on the internet and a contract that incorporates the leverage and protection your business needs to flourish.
That's why it's called "Fix-Your-Template." Because when it comes to contracts, the integrity is in the specificity. And the best contracts are the ones that are specific for a reason.This guide helps you understand the reason for each term in your contract and then gives you the specific language you need to include in it that makes the most sense for your business.
Hear from Our Customers: Dana Escamilla, Stargazer Group:
“This guide help me gain a better understanding of what was even written in the off-the-internet contract I was using and what I really needed given my business model and size.”
“I was able to ask Brionna a couple tailoring questions and confidently customize the contract language to fit my business and working process. Now when I send the contract, it no longer feels like a box to check off the onboarding to do list, but a solid foundation for starting a client engagement and relationship.”
MEET THE BRAINS BEHIND THE GUIDE
Hi, I'm Brionna, The Lawless Lawyer, and I've walked a mile (or many) in your shoes.
I used to co-own and operate a 6-figure consulting agency that served everyone from Fortune 500 companies, tech startups, nonprofit organizations, hospitals and medical groups, and public school systems.
I know what it is to navigate a wide array of client needs and vendor onboarding processes.
I know what it is to struggle to negotiate really long, dense contracts (yes, even as a lawyer I struggled with this!).
And I've felt the pain of late payments, client delays, and scope creep.
It's that experience that led me to start my work as The Lawless Lawyer because I believe every consultant and freelancer deserves to have a baseline legal skillset that helps you use the law to to get paid fairly, be respected by your clients, and build a successful business, whatever that looks like for you.
