(((( my studio )))) 4 shields of protection. What a concept!

As a private music teacher I have to regularly defend myself against non-committal parents, who are often looking for advantages in lesson time shifting. It is a very real and hard issue for a dedicated private teacher. Studio time is limited and therefore it is as precious as teacher's professional skills. It took me many years to structure flexible lesson pricing - yearly contract rate, non-committal rate, single lesson rate - and enforce them. The Four Shields, clearly described by the book author Thomas A.Schweich, contributed to better understanding and improvement of my contractual agreement with studio parents. More importantly, it helped to bring teacher - parents relationships at my studio into more respectful level. Thank you, Mr.Schweich, for a generosity of your spirit.

A Must Read for All Businesses. . .small or large!

The book is very readable and it is not necessary to be a lawyer to understand the risks and how to prevent potential litigation. It is hard to believe that a lawyer wrote this book since the book was an easy read and can serve as a good reference tool for managers to share with employees. Great work!
