We hear this question often, and the answer is: Yes. If you asked your vendor to include certain terms and conditions while you were negotiating a new contract, put those terms in writing and ask the vendor to sign your contract before you sign theirs. Then, when you do sign your vendor’s contract, make sure none of the terms of their contract negate the terms in your contract. If you find any that do, ask the vendor to strike them out and initial the changes. We all enter new relationships and new agreements with the best intentions, but it is easy to forget what was originally promised.
