What should I push back on in this contract?
Vern
Based on this contract, I'd recommend pushing back on 3 clauses:

Clause 8.2 — Limitation of Liability is uncapped, exposing you to unlimited financial risk. Request a cap at 2x annual contract value.

Clause 12.1 — Auto-Renewal requires only 7 days notice to cancel. Push for 30 days minimum.

Clause 15.3 — IP Assignment transfers all IP created during the engagement. Negotiate to retain IP for pre-existing work.

Draft me an email pushing back on the liability cap and auto-renewal terms
Vern
Subject: Proposed amendments — Liability & Auto-Renewal

Hi [Name],

Thank you for sending through the agreement. We've reviewed it and would like to discuss two points before proceeding:

1. Limitation of Liability (Clause 8.2) — The current draft contains no cap on liability. We'd propose a mutual cap at 2x the annual contract value, with standard carve-outs for wilful misconduct.

2. Auto-Renewal (Clause 12.1) — The 7-day notice period is shorter than we'd typically accept. We'd ask for a minimum 30-day notice period for either party.

Happy to discuss on a call if helpful.

Best regards
