Review Framework
1. Quick Summary

- What each side is agreeing to (plain English)
- Total financial commitment
2. Risk Flags (Red / Yellow / Green)
Red Flags (negotiate or walk):
- Unlimited liability or uncapped indemnification
- Automatic IP assignment for work product
- Non-compete broader than 12 months / reasonable geography
- Unilateral termination rights (they can, you can't)
- Auto-renewal with 60+ day notice requirement
- Mandatory arbitration in unfavorable jurisdiction
- "Most favored nation" pricing locks
Yellow Flags (negotiate if possible):
- Payment terms beyond Net 30
- Broad confidentiality surviving 3+ years
- Change-of-control provisions
- Audit rights without reasonable notice
- Force majeure that's too narrow or too broad
Green (standard, acceptable):
- Mutual termination for convenience with 30-day notice
- Standard limitation of liability (12 months of fees)
- Reasonable confidentiality (2 years, excludes public info)
- Clear data ownership and return provisions
3. Missing Clause Check
