I need a model release

I need a model release for a mainstream product thing I am doing. Just grabbing one online is that a good idea?

Does anyone else think this is the most worthless advice ever given? First you need to find a lawyer with any experience in this area. Then are they good? Also do you the perrson going ot hire this lawyer know what you need? Do I know the ins and outs? If you hire lawyers for every little thing you do you would go broke pretty fast. I go to a lawyer when I know what I wanta and I am pretty sure how to get it. It keeps costs down a ton. Just my way of doing it.

The most correct answer is "see an attorney" but I hear what you're saying. I had the advantage of knowing an adult entertainment attorney before I ever got started in this business and got a reasonably priced attorney-blessed contract but not everyone is afforded that opportunity.

Generally, a contract off the web is sufficient. Download it and tailor it to your own needs. Spend time detailing things about the use of the content. If it's for mainstream content, then I wouldn't even worry about anything else. That's me personally. Others may disagree.

Now, if it were for adult content, then I would spend more time detailing the contract and I would indeed pay an attorney to provide you a locked-tight contract. Just keep in mind that even a $5000 contract blessed by an attorney doesn't guarantee anything. Anyone can sue anyone at any time.....assuming you're in the sue-happy US of A. Just ask Donald Trump and his ex-wives.

I get the point of the "see an attorney". It just seems to be used a lot to make the person seem smart while not providing anything. Add in the "see a tax accountant." or "if you had that kind of money you would already know that answer." Both very common here and not that correct or helpful.

::steps off his high horse::

So thanks for the help.
