I believe this is a standard practice. What does your lawyer say? You cannot do this without a lawyer, so if you do not have one, get one and follow their advice.

My standard disclaimer: I am not offering legal advice, assume I do not know the law in your state and that I am just making suggestions. Do NOT rely on anything I write and contact a lawyer in your area immediately for real legal advice.
