California Sample Construction Contracts - With Down Payment,
no progress payments, balance due at end of job

The Construction Contract Writer program helps you draft an enforceable contract in minutes that precisely fits your needs AND the particular job -- and meets federal and state requirements.

It's super easy to use. Just answer a series of questions -- like an interview -- to construct a legal contract for each project you take on.

Construction Contract Writer explains in plain English what you need to know before answering an interview question.

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 even create subcontracts from the prime contract if needed.

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.

Need legal help drafting a contract? Construction Contract Writer even includes a feedback button to an attorney to help if you get stumped. This service is free, and you can expect a response within 24 hours.

When you're done, save the contract for future use or modification at a later date. Print contracts directly or export to MS Word or Adobe PDF for electronic delivery or archiving on disk.

What about changes to construction contract laws? Don't worry -- the first year of updates is included with the purchase price! Your contracts have to change to stay in compliance. That's why Construction Contract Writer includes an "Update" button. You'll be invited to click "Update" when a change affects the contracts you're drafting. A connection to the Web is required to obtain the updates.

Even experienced construction contract attorneys will find plenty of useful reference material in Construction Contract Writer. Construction Contract Writer cites local court decisions and code sections relevant to key interview questions.

There's even a free trial download available.
