Yes a copy of your contract is required by the Dept of NJ, however they do NOT review nor can they review them for legalities / contract terms, they are not allowed to. They are there to make sure your business is valid and registered, they do NOT certify. They really only want to see you HAVE a contract.

all kidding aside, your contract is very important. i agree one should not use another person's contract as it may not be sufficient for the services they render. I do however disagree on the length of their contract. I read someones contract and it was filled with so much legal jargon it made me sick. when i first joined the forums i heard the same "WARNING WARNING WARNING" on a lot of issues including the contract. There are NO IRON CLAD CONTRACTS, no matter how lengthy or short, contracts get broken every day, and people are in litigation every day. A lawyer will take your case knowing he can't win, just to get your money!!! For those that hate Chiro's as crooked, nothing is more crooked than a LAWYER!!! You can have a basic contract and an attorney can redo that contract in legal terms and its EXACTLY the same contract you had, just "fancied" up. Nobody has a contract without a loop-hole. I have seen issues come up in this forum that may not be included in my contract. I don't have a lengthy one, but I have multiple contracts. My contract may be 3 pages for 1 provider, and then 4 for the next. What my contact covers basically is the technical legal issues. The addendum covers the services I will provide. Some providers will have me do the invoicing while others will not, so its not listed as a job duty I will perform. I would say to anyone who is looking at their contract thinking it is too short and not good enough to remember QUALITY beats Quantity every single time. Having a contract put in legal terms lengthens it, not necessarily strengthens it.
