I am the attorney behind The Contract Shop®, a contract template store for creative entrepreneurs, wedding professionals, and coaches. We've been featured on top-rated podcasts like Cubicle to CEO, The Goal Digger Podcast, and Don’t Keep Your Day Job.
I started The Contract Shop® in 2015 with the goal of helping other creative entrepreneurs keep their business above board, legally speaking. I knew that legalese was confusing and entrepreneurs like me were busy — they needed a quick way to get legal. Today, we sell thousands of legal templates to creative entrepreneurs and small business owners just like you.
When I'm not staring at a computer or awkwardly standing on cafe chairs for the perfect overhead latte photo, you can find me in the woods doing things that are sometimes dangerous but always fun, like riding horses, skiing and reluctantly camping.

We get this question so often that we wrote a blog post about it! The short answer is, no, we are not a law firm. We simply provide lawyer-drafted-and-reviewed templates. Law firms provide custom legal advice and solutions based on your problems and questions at hand.
In short, yes. But we know that may not be enough to earn your trust, so here’s the longer answer:When you buy a service agreement template from The Contract Shop®, you get:
A peer-reviewed contract drafted by Christina Scalera, a licensed attorney. These templates have also been reviewed by several lawyers, which means you're getting the expertise of a handful of attorneys at only a fraction of their hourly rates.
Peace of mind knowing that your contract was written for your industry by someone who understands your business. You’ll also get the same contract that hundreds of other pros in your industry have used to protect their business [and they’ve worked for them].
Solid protection in plain English. We skip the legalese, so you can earn your clients’ trust with a contract they can understand. You also get access to resources that help you customize your contracts in minutes.
Regular updates. We don’t believe in making you pay again for something you already purchased — and we definitely don’t believe in sticking you with a template that doesn’t protect you.
Our contract templates have also been trusted by HoneyBook®, Danielle LaPorte, and Ramit Sethi’s Growth Lab.
