520 _aConsiders potential pitfalls involved in signing a letter of intent, as highlighted by a case involving the architect HOK and a job it took on in Hanover. Among the lessons to be learnt from this case are: agreeing to do work, or supplying goods, while still negotiating a contract is a constant source of litigation; if work is to be carried out in this time, a basis of remuneration should be agreed in advance; when agreeing a contract while forming a company, it is important to expressly agree to negate personal liability if that formation remains incomplete.
