Sir, surely you jest, ethics alone would make it very serious indeed.

In the US maybe.  In the UK it's trivial.

Contracting for penetration testing is complex and, if not done with the
assistance of expert counsel, can leave you at serious risk. Find a lawyer
who understands both contracts and cyberlaw and listen carefully to his or
her advice. This is no place for do-it-yourself.

There is a lot of confusion on the Legal Documents that we need to sign and
protect ourselves (I.e Pen Testing Company)before we accept a Assignment.
Consultants and legal 'experts' dump loads of papers which no one really
understands.
Is any one aware of a web resource where one can find all/some documents
which we might use before and after Pen-testing assignment?
Or is there some one who can guide us on "How to Tackle the Legal Tangle?"
