It is not your fault that you are 'assumed' to be able to give free legal work.

Having good manners is putting up with some people's bad ones, hey?

Just give an excuse that you have a big case coming up and you simply do not have the time.

Or renegotiate, do they have anything they can offer that you want? (the use of their boat for one afternoon etc etc)

Or, look at it for 15 minutes and say, "it looks like the standard contract but I can't be too sure - best not to take my word on it. It will take a couple of hours for me to look through it properly, please book a time so I can better help you."
