Contract Wording

[PandorasJar]

Hi all,

Stuck on the last line of contracts before they can start going out to liveries... how do I word that there will be daily checks on the horses (that there are four legs and in the right field) but not thorough checks (DIY contract). We tend to have a more thorough check but it's basically making them aware that on DIY we won't be bringing in and checking head to toe...

I've initially put 'basic check' but think it leaves it incredibly open to interpretation

Everything else is BHS wording and mine mingled but this I can't word without sticking out like a sore thumb!!

there will be daily checks on the horses (to ensure that there are four legs and in the right field) but not thorough 'hands on' checks, as this is the daily responsibility of the owner.

How about, quite simply what you've put (with maybe the additions that I've put in red)?

Definitely smartens it up... it's not too relaxed for contract wording is it? I will pop it in now and check with the OH that all is up to his standard....

To be honest, simple straightforward language is easily understood.

BUT, you of course, to be doubly sure you'd need a solicitor to look at it......

Luckily I work with one! I just didn't want to present something too dumbed down

Thank you!

Brilliant.

Although, they'll hate it......

lol I should imagine it will just get re-written. He asks me to write any letters I want sent out first for him to 'check' rather than write himself. I swear after it's been 'checked' not one original word is in there Although they aren't normally four pages long, so maybe he'll just rearrange the sentences for me
