How to Hire a Lawyer for Contract Review and Drafting
Hire a contract lawyer whose volume and recency match your contract type — SaaS agreements, employment contracts, M&A documents, and real estate leases each require different expertise. Ask how many contracts of your specific type they reviewed in the past year; pattern recognition from volume is the primary value driver.

Comment évaluer un spécialiste
Questions à poser
Posez ces questions lors de toute consultation initiale pour rapidement distinguer les candidats solides des plus faibles.
1.How many contracts of this specific type have you reviewed in the last 12 months?
Pourquoi c'est important : Volume equals pattern recognition. A lawyer who reviews your contract type weekly spots issues that a generalist would miss or flag weeks later after additional research.
2.What are the three most common issues you find in contracts like this?
Pourquoi c'est important : A lawyer with real experience answers immediately and specifically. Generic answers ('I look for liability clauses') indicate limited recent volume in your contract type.
3.Would you flag any concerns before we start, based on the situation I have described?
Pourquoi c'est important : Tests whether they think proactively or only reactively. A strong contract lawyer begins identifying risk before seeing the document, based on context alone.
