Be mindful of who asks for your John Hancock
Never sign anything (other than an autograph) without having your entertainment lawyer review it first. Do not rely on anyone else (or even their lawyer) to tell you what your contract says. And never let anyone rush you or pressure you into signing any agreement. There is really no such thing as a standard “form” contract. Any such contract was drafted by that party’s attorney to protect that party’s interests. Your lawyer can “translate” the deal and explain its terms to you, and then help negotiate more favorable terms for you.
