We’ve heard from talking with hundreds of agencies that you deal with challenges around client contracts and relationships – in fact, it’s the most frequently asked about legal issue for APS author Sharon Toerek.

Questions like:

  • Do we really need our own contracts? Can’t we just modify the clients’ contracts?
  • How long do our contracts really need to be? Can our contract be as short and simple as possible?
  • Will clients actually sign our contract? Won’t they insist on using their own version?

And we’ve heard that your agency needs practical solutions to navigate the legal issues you face in client relationships, more than many others.

So, while the APS is a great comprehensive legal resource for agencies, sometimes you just need a little help in this one area – client relationships.

We’ve heard you, and now we’ve created a NEW solution just for you:
