i actually have worked on very large contracts with universities, governments, the nhs etc and while the time being taken here is at the top end of what i have experienced, it is something that happened far too often. lawyer 1 says we don't like this term, goes back to lawyer 2. lawyer 2 says this will mean altering other terms, meeting held with different departments on impact, lawyer2 goes back and says ok we can change that term but we wont change the other terms and on we go round and round till someone on each side with authority says "just sign the damn thing". i am presently trying to get clients over the line since november last year with issues like this. they do happen in the end, just a massive pain in the ****.
