If
you’re a California construction contractor,
you need to be good at writing California construction contracts.
Once installed on your Windows 7, Vista or XP computer, Construction
Contract Writer will make it easy to draft enforceable California
contracts that fit your jobs precisely and avoid the penalties imposed
by California and federal law.

Just
answer a series of questions -- like an
interview -- to construct a
legal contract for each project you
take on. Construction Contact Writer explains in plain English what you
need to know before answering an interview question. If you know the
job and you know what the job requires, Construction Contract Writer
will do the rest.
Whether you are
writing commercial or residential
construction contracts, you'll be able to anticipate where disputes
could arise and settle them in the contract before they happen. Then
include the warranty protection you intend, the payment schedule, and
create subcontracts from the prime contract.
Resolve
key issues in your favor with bias control.
Many contract clauses in Construction Contract Writer suggest a bias
that favors either the owner, the contractor or the subcontractor. That
allows you to shift burden or risk to a particular party. Want to draft
a contract that protects the property owner? No problem. Need an
aggressive contract that pushes the limits in your favor?
That’s
easy. Of course, if you just want a balanced and fair contract,
Construction Contract Writer will do that too.
Need
legal help drafting a contract?
Construction Contract Writer even includes a feedback button to an
attorney on the Craftsman Book Co. staff to help if you get stumped.
This service is free, and you can expect a response within 24 hours.
When
you’re done, save the contract for future use
or modification at a later date. Print contracts directly or export to
MS Word or Adobe PDF for electronic delivery or archiving on disk.
Construction
contract law changes. But don’t
worry -- the first year of updates is included with the purchase price!
Your contracts have to change to stay in compliance. That’s
why
Construction Contract Writer includes an “Update”
button.
You’ll be invited to click “Update” when
a change
affects the contracts you’re drafting. A connection to the
Web is
required.
Even
experienced construction contract attorneys will
find plenty of useful reference material in Construction Contract
Writer.
Construction Contract Writer cites local court decisions and code
sections relevant to key interview questions.
