You might want to doublecheck though, that the contract is actually enforcable on your side. It's not just that you can't be held liable, described here: http://www.nolo.com/legal-encycloped...ics-33367.html. It's the question of whether the client can declare the contract invalid because you are underage (i.e., not a legal person ;^) should you have a disagreement.

The simple way to get around this might be to have a legal adult co-sign with you. . . .a parent...a guardian. . .your banker. . .the local Mob boss. . .
