Mike Monteiro on Contracts: Fuck You. Pay Me.

Mule Design Studio co-founder Mike Monteiro leads a poignant and gratuitously profane talk on the importance of contracts and legal representation for freelancers and consultants. His perspective is–not surprisingly–that of a designer, but his message aptly transcends disciplines. If you've ever worked without a contract, inked a client agreement sans second thought, or wondered exactly how to deal with that asshole that can never seem to find his checkbook, you absolutely MUST see this.

Great advice. I don't consult anymore, but when I did I ended up writing off most of a large fee. I had a contract, but the bottom line is, I wasn't tough enough and not willing to call in the lawyers.
