business attorney sample contractThere was a time... but now there's too much at stake. Real deals require real contracts.

It has document templates for a wide range of business needs, including all the forms you'd want to operate a company on a day-to-day basis... use it as a short-form device to hammer out terms of an agreement before you turn them over to your attorney.

Establish clear terms, make friends and stay in business.
This collection of sample business contracts will support your deals, help you build your business and save you a small fortune in legal bills. Because each sample contract is written using Microsoft® Word, Agreement Builder gives you complete control over your text, formatting and style. With Agreement Builder you simply fill in the variables, change as necessary, and print — it's very easy to use.

Nothing like a nice lawsuit for inspiration...
Being sued by a former employee who felt he should be paid for sales 10 years out into the future inspired one of these contracts. We wrote it with a vengeance. The sample Sales Representative contract alone is probably worth over $80,000 (yeah... that was a problem!), but it's only a few pages, and you will be very happy you have this in place with every salesperson you hire, either as a contractor on straight commission or as an employee with a base salary.

Fortunately, that's not how we typically develop software, but there's a lesson worth sharing. And now we offer 165 outstanding sample contracts that you can use today.

Advantages exclusive to the Agreement Builder collection

These business contracts have been torture-tested by us first
We just don't believe that stationery store business contracts or the freebies you may find on the web will really protect your business and build good relationships. Do you? We're all for saving money and getting a good deal, but we're more interested in helping you to lay a solid foundation for your business. We gathered these sample business contracts into a real collection that you can use. We've paid our attorneys and used these contracts ourselves, learned from the deals made, and then refined them further to make sure that we do even better the next time.

I've used your software several times in the past few months manage my agreements.  I'm treated with importance because of the documents.  Thanks for Jian's software."
~ Denney Pehrson, Sandy, UT

Annotations throughout are like having a smart lawyer sitting beside you
Attorneys' comments and notations throughout each sample contract assure that you understand each section and explain what to do and why. The comments can even be left in to help clarify specific points during negotiations.

A business contract in plain-English is better for everyone
Don't let legalese get in the way of a good deal. Many contracts are written with almost complete disregard for the potential emotional impact of the wording. You are doing business with people driven by the realities of nature — human nature. Have you ever lost a sale or waited to complete a sale because a customer needed their legal department to review and approve your sales contract. All of the sample contracts in Agreement Builder are complete, understandable, and appealing to the feelings as well as the logic of the people involved with your deals. However, we've updated most of the legaleze so that you and your customers, suppliers, reps, employees and others can easily understand these agreements and do business with you.

Shrewd language prepares for investors and potential acquirers
In the event you'll want to sell your business in the future, the business relationships you are establishing now can add considerable value. Investors and acquirers will want to review your agreements to be certain that your deals (the deals they will acquire) are well documented and assignable to them. Considering their interests now in all of your agreements can save you a small fortune in future legal fees, "due-diligence" and/or renegotiations with partners. Where logical, we've built proper "asssignability" into these sample business contracts — you can assign your agreement to a 3rd party without prior approval...

"Alternative Dispute Resolution" clauses help avoid lawsuits
Furthermore, to prevent unnecessary lawsuits and legal action, we've included language on "alternative dispute resolution" by using arbitration and mediation to avoid the cost of litigation.

Learn more about business law with The Handbook of Business Contracts
Within the included Handbook of Business Contracts we've even provided a mini-course in business law to give you a strong grasp of the basic principles involved. (This manual comes in PDF format with electronic bookmarks making it easy to find and click on the sections you want to read.)

Your business shouldn't be the torture testing ground for dumb things that can cost a fortune. Instead, you can benefit from our effort, experience, and investment.

My order has been downloaded and was even used to create a recent JV contract. For sales background, the JV document capabilities were why I purchased the package, after your product came up in a Google Search. Actually (and I don't say this often,) the software was better than I expected. The interspersed legal explanations within the documents are in and of themselves worth the price of admission. I will be happy to write a positive review.

Works with MacintoshFor Macintosh Users:

Word & Excel Templates Only — Edit, Format & Print

The Macintosh version is a collection of Word and Excel templates that contain the very same content as the PC/Windows program. Unlike the Windows-based program with its document assembly system, we have taken the content and formatted it directly into complete Word and Excel spreadsheet templates for you—beautifully formatted documents that you can easily edit and format to your liking using Word & Excel. Your download will include a folder containing the documents neatly organized within sub-folders, with an "About" page introducing the JIAN business tool you have chosen.

The financial models are in Excel workbooks—they behave the same as in the Windows-based system with the document assembly system. Click them open, then click along the tabs at the bottom to access each page... You'll see, it's very comprehensive, straight-forward and credible.

No Windows-like Application

Although the Windows "wizard" is not there, the financials calculate just the same way as the PC financials. The text is fully editable—we have already assembled the documents for you for editing in Word. We wanted to offer a version of BizPlanBuilder for Mac customers, but R&D on Apple products is astronomical and is not in our current budget based upon the percentage of customers we have that use the Mac platform. We hope to have a cross-platform product out within the next 6 months that is collaborative for all of our users. We will honor our 6 month free upgrade to you at the time that product becomes available... Please send us a copy of your email receipt (or just email us and we will look you up) when you see a newer version of the product on this site. Thank you for understanding.

Success with Agreement Builder sample business contracts software...


I was immediately able to use the exclusive distribution agreement to establish one of the largest contracts of the company.

Just the right type of templates I was looking for. These give me maximum flexibility in preparation of agreements with my clients. Thanks.
- Thomas Morgan, Business Manager, Morgan Consulting, Toledo, OH
I had a non-disclosure agreement drafted by my lawyer, but it was too scary to sign. With Agreement Builder, the text is down to earth and everyone can agree on it.
- S. Haugen, Chicago, IL
I wanted to thank you for your help last week and let you know how things turned out.I purchased an apartment complex in need of major renovation. The funding was somewhat complicated, required substantial documentation and, due to government involvement, we were in a tight time frame. We had a 2:30 p.m. appointment last Thursday with the government review board to make our final presentation, but late Wednesday afternoon we realized we needed a General Partnership Agreement to complete the paperwork. Having our attorney prepare the agreement before our afternoon meeting was highly unlikely. I've used JIAN programs successfully in the past and had this brainstorm to call and see if you could help us. I called you after business hours, Louisville time, and ordered a copy of Agreement Builder to be sent next day air. At 8:45 the next morning it arrived and before noon I had my Partnership Agreement completed. My meeting went great! I've had nothing but success from your programs, and find your service second to none. You can be sure that I will remain a loyal and appreciative customer.
