Bradley, I am on the drafting committee of the Collaborative Law Institute
and we are going to draft a sample uniform contract for y'all to use, but
one has not been drawn to date.  I know that Patrick Savage has a form he
uses, so you might want to contact him.  Just as soon as we've drafted one
for uniform use I'll email it to you, Janet
