A model agency contract will favor the agencies. Do NOT leave yourself unprotected. Almost 100% of models will sign whatever an agency gives them and not understand where they do not have an advantage. A lawyer will cost you approximately $800-$1000. I handled all of the contracts at the biggest corporate agencies and know these contracts inside and out. While I am not a lawyer, I go through hundreds of these, understand the context, know where agencies will make adjustments and know what is non-negotable. I know these contracts better than a standard lawyer who does not know the business. You will not find anyone like me that knows these contracts this well.
