I'm a full-time designer and very rarely have people sign contracts, mostly because if someone breaks the contract what am I going to do? A lawyer or small claims or something like that will take up more of my time and effort then the great majority of my design jobs are worth.
Having said that, for larger jobs I'll write up and get signatures on a letter of agreement that ensures that both myself and my client fully understand what we agreed to. Those are friendlier and more plain-spoken then contracts.
I wouldn't bother with a contract unless you are talking about enough money to go to small claims court over.
