Even if you have done nothing wrong and can provide an adequate defense, the costs involved in a lawsuit can be crippling. For this reason, it is critical to protect yourself and your business at the beginning of any significant financial relationship - whether it is with wedding and portrait clients, employees or subconractors, publishers, galleries, or stock-photography agencies. By clearly establishing the terms of your agreement, you can define the obligations of each party, eliminate misunderstanding, and greatly reduce the potential for costly legal problems. Photographer Norman Phillips and lawyer Christopher S. Nudo have combined years of experience in their respective fields to create a book that covers the needs of photographers and meets the standards of the legal profession. Packed with sample letters, contracts, forms, and clear, jaron-free explanations of each document, it is a critical resource for professional photographers.
