About this episode
Cory discusses the importance of updating client contracts to reflect current business practices and avoid legal issues.
https://www.consciouscounsel.ca/47-updating-client-contractsYour business changes over time. Your contracts should change with it. In this episode, Cory explains when clients need to re-sign agreements, why outdated contracts create legal gaps, and how one gym’s old COVID-era membership terms led to a refund issue years later. Why This Matters When your pricing, refund policy, cancellation terms, membership access, or services change, your contracts need to reflect the current relationship. If they don’t, the old agreement may still control—even if your business has moved on. Key Takeaways ✔️ Contracts should reflect the current relationship with your clients ✔️ Pricing, refund, and cancellation changes usually require updated terms ✔️ Old agreements can weaken your legal position in disputes ✔️ Getting clients to re-sign protects both your business and your community Cory’s Legal Pro Tip “Your agreements should always reflect how your business operates today—not how it operated five years ago.” 🎧 Want to make sure your contracts still protect your business?
