Questions and answers

Is this legal advice?

No. We explain what the contract says in plain words and point out terms worth asking about. Whether a clause is valid or wise to sign is a question for a lawyer in your country.

Will you rewrite the contract or mark changes in it?

No. You get a separate summary; the original file is not edited and no tracked changes are made. A fresh template can be ordered separately.

Can you read a scanned or photographed contract?

No, the PDF needs selectable text. Ask the other side for a Word or digital PDF version.

Which languages can the contract be in?

Common languages are fine. The summary is written in the language you choose.
