Read the Documents. I strongly advise that you read each of these documents. I have read them, and this letter sets forth my thoughts, but you may think of other questions when you read them. You have special knowledge about your business that I do not have, and your special knowledge may lead you to see potential problems in these documents that I could not see. So, please read these documents, jot down questions while you read them, and then call me to discuss them.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Term. The Term seems to me to be rather short. Perhaps the Term should be longer.ChV广东深和律师事务所

Re: [Client/Matter_________]ChV广东深和律师事务所
Dear _________:ChV广东深和律师事务所
This confirms that I received your [Date_________] letter and its enclosed draft of the [Title_________] Contract. I have read the draft, discussed it with my client [Client_________], and have the following initial comments that we will need to resolve before we can move ahead with negotiating the finer points of the Contract:ChV广东深和律师事务所
Term. The Term would need to be at least _________ years before my client could seriously consider entering into the Contract.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Unit Price. The Unit Price would need to be at least $_________ before my client could consider the Contract financially feasible.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Controlling Law. My client does business only in the State of Florida and does not desire to engage a lawyer in [State_________], so the Contract will need to provide that Florida law controls.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Publicity. My client requests that the last sentence of paragraph 3 on page 2 of the Contract be changed to read as follows: _________.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Please discuss these points with your client and let me know if your client is willing to pursue negotiation of a Contract along these lines.ChV广东深和律师事务所

Please read these drafts carefully and call me when you are ready to discuss or sign them in my office. Please consider the following:ChV广东深和律师事务所
Joint Representation. I am representing both of you in preparing the above documents. If a controversy ever develops between the two of you concerning these documents, I would not be able to represent either of you in that controversy.ChV广东深和律师事务所
No Other Children. The documents were drafted with the understanding that only your children _________ and _________ are to be beneficiaries because you do not plan to have any more children naturally or by adoption.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Florida Residency. The enclosed documents are specifically for Florida residents. If you ever move out of Florida, I advise that you see a lawyer in that state and make new wills and related documents because all fifty states' laws differ. For example, Vermont and Louisiana require more than two witnesses for a will to be valid, so the enclosed wills might not be valid if you reside in Vermont or Louisiana at the time of your death.ChV广东深和律师事务所
No Unified Credit Trusts. You could take advantage of the unified credit for estate and gift taxes in a number of ways. This credit allows passing $_________ （increasing to $1,000,000 by 2006） in assets by each of you without estate or gift taxes. However, at the present time, you have decided not to create any trusts that would take advantage of the unified credit.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Tenancy by the Entirety. You plan to hold some of your assets in your joint names as tenants by the entirety. Florida recognizes this for both real property and personal property, but it is important that you designate this on your titleChV广东深和律师事务所
documents as follows:ChV广东深和律师事务所
_________ AND _________, HUSBAND AND WIFE, AS TENANTS BY THE ENTIRETYChV广东深和律师事务所
Car Titles and Insurance. I advised that each of your cars be owned only by the principal driver. Florida's dangerous instrumentality doctrine holds all owners liable along with the driver. I also advised that you carry an umbrella liability insurance policy with coverage limit of One Million Dollars or more. You should also carry uninsured motorist coverage in this amount （it would pay you if you were injured by an uninsured motorist）. All of these ideas are intended to reduce the possibility of your losing your estate through unexpected claims.ChV广东深和律师事务所
FDIC Limits. We discussed the importance of your continuing not to place more than $100,000 in any bank since you should not count on the FDIC protecting more than this amount no matter how the accounts are titled.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Prior Wills. When you come in to sign the final documents, please bring in your prior wills so that they can be torn up AFTER the new ones are signed.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Scope of Representation. The scope of my representation does not include advice or services regarding the following: accounting, tax, financial, business, management, and related non-legal matters and advice （I advise that you engage a CPA, tax attorney or business consultant to advise you regarding these matters）; title searches, surveys, inspections and other non-legal work relating to real estate （I advise that you engage a title insurance company, abstractor, surveyor or other licensed professional to provide you these services）; securities, labor and other legal matters not handled by this firm （I advise that you engage a lawyer who specializes in these matters if you need such advice）. I would be happy to refer you to others who may provide you these services.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Legal Fees. Fees for estate planning are based on the amount of time spent, the complexity and skill required, and similar factors, at hourly rates of $_________ for myself and $_________ for my paralegal. You will also pay for such costs as copies, postage, long distance, fax, recording, FedEx, courier, etc. I gave you my Resume at the initial conference, and it explains how I bill for services. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Florida Wills, Trusts & Probate Questions and Answers. I gave you a copy of this article before the initial conference. If you have any questions about these concepts, please ask them now.ChV广东深和律师事务所
I appreciate your trust and confidence in asking me to assist you. I will endeavor to do my best for you at all times. Please call me after you review the enclosed documents. Thank you.ChV广东深和律师事务所
Very truly yours,ChV广东深和律师事务所
