Contract Do's and Don’ts

Contracts don’t have to be scary—but they do need to be clear, protective, and legally sound.

In this workshop, attorney Krizia from The Lawnch, pulls back the curtain on what contracts really need to include (and what they don’t), so you can stop relying on free templates, DMs, and handshake deals. Whether you’re an experienced business owner or just starting out, understanding the legal foundation of contracts is key to protecting your business and your peace of mind.

You’ll learn:

• What makes a contract legally valid
• The most common contract mistakes small business owners make
• Must-have clauses every service agreement should include
• When a contract can actually backfire and how to fix it
• What to do when a client ghost you or doesn’t pay (and how your contract can help)

You’ll leave this session with the tools to write, negotiate, and confidently use contracts that protect your boundaries, your business, and your bank account.

Who this is for: Service providers, freelancers, and business owners who work with clients, hire contractors and want to make sure the paperwork is actually working for them.
