What If Agency Doesn't Agree to Amend the Contract?

[Dynamic]

I get my contracts reviewed and I often use a solicitor.

You mean the solicitor reviews the contract only or negotiates with the agency about amending it as well?

Solicitors cost a fortunate; £200 an hour for an average one!

Check your PMs.

And no they don't cost that much.

I managed to get the agency sign a variation to the original contract for the right of substitution as discussed. Also they made other small amendments to the original contract e.g. adding an end date, etc. All the changes I wanted, were made finally

25 days after the start of the contract!

Well done - and you'll be all the wiser next time.
