If I use a Barstow Contract Co. template, does that make you my lawyer?
No. Purchasing a template does not create an attorney–client relationship. While every contract is drafted by a licensed Texas attorney and reviewed by legal professionals, these templates are DIY legal tools, not custom legal services. They’re designed to provide strong, practical protection without the cost of hiring an attorney for one-on-one drafting. We always recommend consulting a licensed attorney in your state for advice on how to tailor your contracts to your specific circumstances.
.
Can I modify the contract templates?
Yes. Each template is fully editable and includes a user-friendly guide that walks you through every section. Key areas are clearly highlighted, with attorney-drafted notes and practical suggestions to help you tailor the language to fit your operation; no legal background required.
Can I review the contract before I buy it?
No. Due to the digital nature of our products, templates aren’t available for preview. However, each product listing includes a detailed description and a full list of included clauses, so you know exactly what you’re getting. If you have any specific questions before you buy, please reach out to us at hq@barstowcontracts.com.
What is your Refund Policy?
All sales are final. Because our digital templates provide immediate access to proprietary contract language, they cannot be returned or refunded. Barstow Contract Co.® maintains a strict no-refund policy to protect the integrity and value of our work.
That said, we’re proud of our work and want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase. If you have any concerns or questions about how to complete or customize your template, please reach out at hq@barstowcontracts.com, and we’ll get you taken care of.
Are these contracts legally binding?
Yes. When properly completed and signed, our templates are designed to provide reliable legal protection and hold up under U.S. contract law. That said, enforceability can depend on how the contract is used and the specific laws in your state. If you’re facing a complex situation or simply want added peace of mind, we always recommend having a local attorney review your final draft.
Can I reuse a contract after I purchase?
Yes! Your purchase grants a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the template unlimited times within your own business, for as many clients as you serve. You’ll also receive complimentary updates to that template whenever we release them. However, you may not resell, share, sublicense, or distribute the template itself (in whole, in part, or in editable form) outside your business.
Can I share these templates with others?
No. Each purchase is licensed for use by the original purchaser only. Sharing, redistributing, or republishing our templates — whether with friends, clients, or colleagues — violates our licensing terms and intellectual property rights.
However, we do offer an affiliate program for professionals who want to recommend our products. To learn more, email us anytime at hq@barstowcontracts.com.
Why do I need a template? Can I just make my own contract?
You can, but the risk of getting it wrong is often far greater than the cost of doing it right. Writing your own contract without legal training can leave critical gaps, vague terms, or enforceability issues that only show up when it’s too late and small drafting mistakes can create big problems down the road.
Barstow Contract Co.® templates are professionally drafted, plain-English, and industry-specific. They’re designed to be enforceable and practical in the real world; protecting your time, income, and reputation while staying easy to customize for your workflow. You get the confidence of a strong legal structure without spending hours reinventing the wheel.

Can I use these templates if I live outside the US?
Yes. Barstow Contract Co.® templates are drafted under U.S. law but include many widely accepted provisions that make them a strong starting point for international use, especially for agriculture and equine-related agreements. If a fully custom contract isn’t feasible, these templates provide a practical, legally informed foundation. We strongly recommend that international customers have a local attorney or barrister review and adapt the final version. This adds an extra layer of protection and can significantly reduce legal fees by giving your lawyer a clear, professional framework to work from.
What if my client lives in a different state or country?
Each contract includes a “governing law” and “venue” clause that lets you choose which state’s laws will apply and where disputes will be resolved. This allows you to keep things local even if your client isn’t.
Do you offer custom contract drafting or legal services?
Only in Texas, and only on a limited basis. Barstow Contract Co.® is not a law firm; we offer DIY legal templates for ag and equine professionals. If you need one-on-one legal advice or a fully custom contract, we recommend working with a licensed attorney in your state.
