Counsel for the Developer

In the future
You need partners

Not suppliers
Not customers
Not acquisition
Targets but

Partners

And partnerships
Should not
Be based
Solely on
Long
Legal
Agreements

But rather
On reciprocally
Fair deals
Oriented towards
Mutual interests
And maintained
In an atmosphere of
Good Will

(Bad news for lawyers).
