Below is an excerpt from a agreement that a law firm (SSD) has asked me to sign on behalf of its client RGF (bold is mine):You will submit written invoices to SSD detailing the services rendered pursuant to this agreement during the immediately preceding month. All invoices will be sent directly to the attention of [Attorney 1] and [Attorney 2] at the above address. SSD will immediately forward all invoices to RGF. SSD will endeavor to secure payment of the invoices within 30 days of their submission to RGF, and SSD will pay you the amount due for services rendered and expenses incurred within 10 calendar days after SSD receives payment by RGF. Although your invoices will be paid by checks issued by SSD, you acknowledge that RGF is ultimately responsible for payment of any appropriate charges that you submit, and you will not look to SSD for payment of any amounts that are unpaid or disputed by you.So I'll have a contract with someone, but someone else is responsible for payment and I'll have no means of enforcing same? I don't think so...

I once did an airport construction job where the engineer/inspector suffered a major heart attack at the end of the construction. All payments were stopped pending his review. After a few months we finally asked the insensitive "what if he doesn't recover" question. After a few months of consideration of that possibility they found a way to pay off the construction of the now in-use runway.
