How do you ensure that they don't play games with numbers? Do the terms of your payment state that you have access to final salary?

Even when you get that, how do you know they didn't completely falsify it or fudge it somewhat?

It seems safer to me to just charge $5K flat fee or something.

Usually a contract would do.
