Sign on the Dotted Line: Law Firm offers Fifty Shades of Grey Style “Lovers’ Agreement” Contracts

A law firm in Liverpool is jumping on the Fifty Shades of Grey bandwagon, by giving clients the chance to draw up their own "Lovers' Agreement" contract like the characters in the naughty novel...

We thought that the Fifty Shades of Grey frenzy had started to die down a bit, but apparently we were wrong. And now? Well now ladies, we’ve officially heard everything. Let us explain…

A contract law firm is currently offering clients the chance to make their very own ‘Lovers’ Agreement’ much like the one shared by Anastasia Steele and kinky billionaire Christian Grey in the naughty novel.

So basically, in return for some bedroom action, your Lovers’ Agreement specifies what you get in return for being so eh… giving, ahem, behind the closed doors of your boudoir. Yes, really.

For £1.99 (that’s roughly €2.50 to us) you can visit McEntegart Legal Limited in Liverpool and tell a lawyer exactly what you’re willing to give your partner in exchange for whatever it is that you want him to give you.

The contract specifies just what exactly you’re willing to do for your partner…

“It is drafted for partners to have a laugh and a good time together. It is for wives, husbands, boyfriends and girlfriends,” said lawyer Francis McEntegart, speaking to the Daily Mail.

“You can offer your lover a shopping trip, a holiday or a bottle of wine in return for a kiss, cuddle or whatever you like to add into the contract. Although we have included examples, you can really add whatever you both would like,” Mr McEntegart added.

The good news is that the contract isn’t actually legally binding, so if you don’t agree to a bit of spanking or whipping, your other half can’t really do anything about it. The purpose of the Lovers’ Agreement is to simply freshen things up in the bedroom.

We have to ask – what’s so wrong about a non-binding oral contract in such a situation? Surely you don’t need an actual lawyer? (Could you imagine explaining the nitty gritty of what you want to a lawyer? Morto!)
