Nearly every contractor who signs a contract agreement has a chance to negotiate the terms of that agreement. Relatively few private jobs are done on a take-it-or-leave-it basis on a printed constructor contract form. Most residential, commercial and industrial contracts are negotiated between the property owner and the contractor. Many contractors offer to prepare the contract simply because the property owner can't or doesn't want to try. On most jobs, the construction contractor starts contract negotiations simply by submitting a written bid. Attaching one of your California construction forms to that bid makes it easy for your client to say "Yes."

Of course, not every client will be eager to do business on one of your contractor forms. Some will offer their own contract. Others will object to specific terms in the agreement you offer. What then? No problem. That's the way it's supposed to be – negotiation. The better you and your clients understand the California construction forms you offer, the less likely any surprises and disputes.

But no matter what objection a client may have to the contract you offer, it's always better to do business on a constructor contract form you've developed. Don't get caught doing business on a defective construction contract form.
