Time and Money wasted
It was good to have an attorney tell me what is standard within a contract. There were a few industry standard things I had not seen. Yet, I had to insist that my attorney negotiate for me despite it being part of the paid service. While he listened in regard to what my concerns where, he was ineffective with getting anything changed. Also, I realized through the process that some points were not worth editing in the contract because the university bylaws worked in my favor. It was unnecessary arguing. Ultimately, I was encouraged to hire an attorney to help with negotiations just to end up with no changes to my contract. The experience led to more stress and money wasted. I did not have the time or money to restart my job search and took the job.
