Summary
Rashid is ready to take on international clients, but he keeps hesitating over how to protect himself if a contract dispute crosses borders. Preston and Austin argue that a contract isn't really about winning in court — it's about setting expectations before the work even begins. They walk through the deposit rules, red flags, and reference checks that keep freelancers from getting burned, whether their next client is down the street or halfway around the world.
