Legality of Rental Lease Forms

Hey guys, I’ve got a quick question in regards to my lease form. I pulled my lease from the Bigger Pockets “Managing Rental Properties” book, and tailored it to suit my property. My question is am I legally able to tailor the lease to suit my property, etc. I have a friend who has suggested that I should use the California Association of Realtors form but it is so generic that I really don’t like it. Should I have a lawyer read through my lease? Any thoughts?
