Document Overview

This Consulting Agreement is designed a private employer retaining the services of a consultant to work as an independent contractor.

So that the consultant is properly categorized as an independent contractor and an employee, a consulting agreement should balance the company's expectations regarding the consultant's services and the consultant's discretion and independence in providing services.

It may be important to consider if any confidential information or trade secrets are being shared and whether a Non-Disclosure Agreement (also known as confidentiality agreement) might be relevant.

What does the Consulting Agreement cover?

  • Performance of the consultancy services.

  • Payment.

  • The status of the consultant as an independent contractor.

  • Intellectual property.

  • Confidentiality.

  • Relevant warranties and indemnities.

  • Termination.

Other names for Consulting Agreement include:

  • Consultancy Agreement.

  • Consulting Contract.

  • Consulting Services Agreement.

Easy use and guidance through the documentThis system easily guides you through the process of using their document. Unfortunately, you cannot edit the document other than the information fields until you purchase the subscription, but if you need something basic, then it is perfect!

First attempt.My first attempt at completing a document on this new online resource. The process was quite simple and straightforward for me. However i did not fully test the system e.G. What does " get lawyer assistance" trigger? In any event, as a practitioner of holistic financial services to my clients, i am looking forward to utilising the full capabilities of this resource.
