Okay, I really need to start using a solid contract. Does anybody have a good place to start?
It seems when I work for architects, some treat my services as if I were a CAD Tech working on salary. Today, I got a list of model changes which were not part of the original document and when I replied with how much work it'll take I got the reply, it's a simple stretch exercise. The last few projects had emails starting with, "let's try this", which really gets my goat. I have had revisions after revisions, and then the lead changes midstream with a whole new set of ideas. My current project I put a bicyclist and the architect sent me a photo of the local bike share bike, saying, it's a must that the bike looks like this, really!
I blame myself for working without a contract, so I need to get one in place. I have one, but it's pretty weak. I found one online, but it's just page after page of mumbo jumbo. Is it worth it to seek legal advice?
