We do not want to go through the expense of hiring a lawyer to develop consulting engagement contracts for us - does anyone have any suggestions on how we can get a contract fairly inexpensively?

We bought our book here it not only has 11 consulting contracts, it walks you though how to negotiate the contracts. It is well worth the money.

Thanks Invest that is exactly what I was looking for!

I have not checked on their site but you can usually get what you are looking for in terms of legal contracts on Nolo: Law Books, Legal Forms and Legal Software

You can check Pre-Paid Legal Services Inc.. Inexpensive and worth it.

You can check out Pre-Paid Legal Services Inc. . Very inexpensive and worth it.

Thanks I was looking for something like this

Rauga why would you pay for pre-paid legal if you do not think you would ever get into any problems? If you do run into a problem that could potentially cost thousands of dollars and you only paid your first months payment ($25) how does that impact your model. Interesting concept though.
