Does anyone know basics about GC contracts?

[Patrick Philip]

Hi,

I've never hired a GC before. I've signed contractors with subs using an Independent Contractor Agreement that I got from a "guru" that seems pretty good. It includes a penalty clause for late finished.

How can I fire a GC during a job if we've signed a contract for the whole job? Can I simply trespass him from the property?

What other things are important in contracts with GC's?
