Most of the lawyers I have dealt with over the years were too dull witted to even explain the problem to, much less do anything about it.

Its not a question of being cheap. If you don't understand precisely the legal basis of what you are doing, you shouldn't be doing it.

I just closed on a mainstream business. I downloaded a contract off the net for a model, and typed up 25 pages.

The whole time my wife kept bugging me that I really should have an attorney for the contract and I eventually caved in.

I gave the guy $300 for a one hour review of the contract, a total waste of money. Not one creative idea or correction escaped his lips, except for telling me who to make the check out to.

In general you are better off without attorneys in many situations.
