The contract should list the services to be performed, the dates and times at which they are to be performed, and the charges to be paid for the services. This contract does not necessarily have to be formal, but at the minimum a document spelling out all of the details and signed by both parties. It is also important for you to get receipts for all deposits you have made.</div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
