How to review a contract in 2 minutes before you sign

“Sign by EOD” — you will not get full legal audit. 2 minutes for a first filter is realistic.

Steps

  1. Full PDF/DOCX, not screenshots
  2. Explanation language — EN ok even if contract is EN
  3. Five blocks: payment, liability, IP, term/termination, disputes
  4. One email to client with 2–3 clause fixes — not Slack arguments
  5. Lawyer if deal size or equity warrants it — go with § numbers, not “read everything”

Three free analyses per day — enough for NDA + MSA + SOW from one client.

Informational only, not legal advice.
