    through the instrumentality of the courts."



              -Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
               The Path of the Law (1897)

"I want to draft a contract
with . . . specifications."
I have a few follow-up

1. Where will the contract be
executed?
2. What are the possible remedies in
case of a breach of contract?
3. Do the parties have adequate
insurance?
      Shall I draft the contract?
