Every day, subcontractors across all trades face the same critical dilemma:
Should I sign a subcontract I don't understand-one that might even put my company at risk? Or should I refuse to sign and lose the job?
Attorney Karalynn Cromeens wrote Quit Getting Screwed to help every subcontractor, no matter how big or how small, understand what those subcontracts mean.
Know which provisions you should expect and which ones to avoid. Identify dangerous provisions that need to be removed, learn the best negotiation techniques, and come to the table armed with fair language that can be substituted for unfair clauses.
Signing a subcontract you don't understand can put your entire livelihood in jeopardy. If you're a subcontractor, don't sign another subcontracting agreement without knowing what it means.
Keep this book in your pocket, and quit getting screwed.
