I had to spend $300 for an hour of my attorney to have him review my ToS, and he found that I had copied/pasted a Creative Commons ToS from another country that was using phrases & terminology that wouldn't hold up in the US, and advised that I redo it all because it wouldn't hold up in court. So I was glad to have hired him to learn that. The company folded before I had to hire him to rewrite it though, otherwise I would've spent another $600 on another 2 hours of writing & revising a new ToS.

when you use a lawyer to draft your ToS, then if your company is sued because of ToS that the lawyer provide, is the lawyer for any lawsuit that comes with the ToS? and lets say if your company lost a lawsuit due to ToS, who will be liable for it? and who is going to pay the damage or settlement? I am thinking it's the lawyer who may have to pay because your company paid the lawyer to draft the ToS and he was not competent if such case happens. But I am not sure, hence the question. Thanks.
