Avoid Costly Legal Mistakes

The Trap of Generic Agreements

Understanding why one-size-fits-all templates often fail to protect your specific business assets and reputation in Ohio.

Online forms rarely account for the specific ways you interact with your business contacts.

At Costaras Law, we identify the vulnerabilities that standard templates miss, from vague scope definitions to unenforceable liability clauses.

Compliance: Aligning every clause with the Ohio Revised Code.

Clarity: Removing legalese that hides potential service disputes.

Control: Ensuring termination and exit rights are clearly defined.

"Legal protection is not just about having a document; it's about having the right framework for your specific goals."
