What is an Independent Contractor Agreement?
An Independent Contractor Agreement is a legal contract that outlines the scope, payment schedule, and deadlines for freelance work. Signed by both the contractor and the client, this agreement can help to set expectations and reduce the risk of conflicts.
When can you use an Independent Contractor Agreement?
- You will be completing services for a person or company on a project-to-project basis (i.e. as an independent contractor or freelancer).
- You will be receiving services from an independent contractor.
- Note: If you are hiring an employee (not an independent contractor) use an employment agreement instead.
