I know a guy with a problem. Let's call him... ViercePoice. He came to me with this:

I met with a group locally in Raleigh yesterday. They are more of an "acting" agency, but they passed some paperwork my way anyhow.

When joining with a local (with a mainly local focus), are there any drawbacks I should look for?
Should I be hiring a lawyer to read the wordy "exlucivity" contract?
They don't handle voice work, but say I may be right for some video acting auditions-- things us face-for-radio folks are anxious about.

I know the "agent this and that" questions are so many that these have come up be4, but... help a fella-- my friend-- out?
