I think there are two kinds of lawyers: the kind who want to utilize their law school education to the fullest and the kind who have done that and realized the cost-benefit to over-lawyering is negative. The second kind has reasonable standard contracts and pretty much just refuses to spend more than a few minutes changing them. The first kind has completely unreasonable contracts and expects a long adversarial process to reach a reasonable contract.

But I agree with you because most lawyers are the first type.
