Contract Tips, Resources, and Statistics

According to IACCM almost 9% of all contracts result in a dispute! Some industries, like Engineering and Construction, have as much as 21% of their contracts experience some form of legal problem. With all that to lose, why would anyone do business without a proposal (or contract)?

Most of the reasons fall under one of these categories:

  • Fear of scaring away clients
  • Don't want to seem too formal
  • Fear of signaling mistrust of the other party
  • Don't want to complicate business dealings

The first step is ensuring you have the right contract.
