Wyoming Edition Download - Construction Contract Writer

If you're a Wyoming construction contractor, you need to be good at writing Wyoming construction contracts.
Once installed on your Windows computer, Construction Contract Writer will make it easy to draft enforceable Wyoming contracts that fit your jobs precisely and avoid the penalties imposed by Wyoming and federal law.

• There is no right to reimbursement of legal expenses if the contract fails to grant attorney fees to the prevailing party in any dispute.
• Failure to create a private limitations period in the contract invokes the 10-year Wyoming statute of limitations.
• Any disclaimer of warranty in the contract will be strictly interpreted against the party making the disclaimer.
• Wyoming courts will not enforce a liquidated damages clause which constitutes a penalty rather than a reasonable forecast of just compensation.
• Omission of the notice required by either Wyoming Statutes Annotated Section 40-14-253(b) or (c) gives an owner the right to cancel a contract at any time (even months after work is complete). Section 40-14-253(d).
• Omission of federal truth in lending disclosures required by 15 United States Code Section 1638 makes the creditor liable for both the overcharge and the debtor's attorney fees.
• Omission of disclosures required by 12 Code of Federal Regulations Section 226.15 extends the 3-day right of rescission to three years under 12 Code of Federal Regulations Section 226.23(a)(3) and 15 U.S. Code Section 1635(f).
• Omission of insulation disclosures required by 16 Code of Federal Regulation Section 460 can result in an $11,000 fine.

When a job goes bad, you better have an iron-clad contract. Consider what happens if you get into a dispute before collecting final payment. An attorney for the other side won't be impressed with your two-page "legal in all 50 states" contract. Most likely, you'll discover that the signed agreement is either partially or totally unenforceable under state law. Game over! You lose. You're not going to collect another dime on that job. Fortunately, there's a better way.

Just answer a series of questions -- like an interview -- to construct a legal contract for each project you take on. Construction Contact Writer explains in plain English what you need to know before answering an interview question. If you know the job and you know what the job requires, Construction Contract Writer will do the rest.

Whether you are writing commercial or residential construction contracts, you'll be able to anticipate where disputes could arise and settle them in the contract before they happen. Then include the warranty protection you intend, the payment schedule, and create subcontracts from the prime contract.

Resolve key issues in your favor with bias control.
Many contract clauses in Construction Contract Writer suggest a bias that favors either the owner, the contractor or the subcontractor. That allows you to shift burden or risk to a particular party. Want to draft a contract that protects the property owner? No problem. Need an aggressive contract that pushes the limits in your favor? That's easy. Of course, if you just want a balanced and fair contract, Construction Contract Writer will do that too.

Construction Contract Writer even includes a feedback button to an attorney on the Craftsman Book Co. staff to help if you get stumped. This service is free, and you can expect a response within 24 hours.

Construction contract law changes. But don't worry -- update subscriptions are available. Your contracts have to change to stay in compliance.
