How an Internet Business Hired a Lawyer to Review a Service Agreement in Michigan (2026)

In 2026, a business operating as a single-member LLC in Michigan sought assistance with a service agreement designed for website design, hosting, and monthly updates intended for small local businesses. The client aimed to ensure the enforceability of the agreement, clarify terms related to automatic payments, late fees, service pauses, liability caps, and ownership transfer upon full payment. Additionally, the client required feedback on the acceptability of e-signatures and any potential gaps in the documents before commencing client work. As a result, the client received six proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $595 to $850, all submitted to meet the client's deadline of over a week.
