ASID bylaws require all chapter contracts are reviewed for completeness by ASID, Inc. attorneys prior to signing and enacting. Legal review is limited to assess risk to the Society’s tax-exempt status as a 501(c)6, and to the extent of limiting liability and unreasonable risk to both the chapter and board members.

ASID does not approve or negotiate contracts on behalf of the chapter. It is the responsibility of the parties to contract to accept, reject or amend any provision. ASID reserves the right to prohibit a chapter activity in the event it poses unnecessary risk to ASID, Inc., affiliate chapters, members, or the Foundation, is not aligned with Society’s mission, or falls outside the scope of a 501(c)6 organization.

Instructions & Process:

1. One contract per submission. Please note file size restrictions.
2. Contracts must be in an original electronic MS Word or PDF format. Scanned copies are un-editable and will not be reviewed.
3. The review period is two weeks (may be longer during holiday and travel seasons). Follow up review is up to two business days.
4. The review team will do it's best to handle expedited requests as quickly as possible, based on the volume of submissions.
