  • Take the worry out of your working relationship and establish an expert or consultant as an independent contractor

    If your firm hires someone to give you expert or professional advice, you're hiring a consultant. And if you ever come under IRS scrutiny, it's important that you have documentation establishing the status of each of these consultants as independent contractors ("ICs"). Use this simple agreement written specifically for experts and consultants to help ensure that your working relationship functions smoothly, and to prove that the worker is indeed an independent contractor and not an employee. The agreement covers:

    • services the IC will provide
    • deadlines the IC must meet
    • when the IC will be paid and how much
    • how either side can change or end the agreement

    Simply fill out the required information on the form, enter your IC's taxpayer ID number, print, and sign. It's that easy!

    This form is appropriate for organizations hiring ICs. If you're an independent contractor, use this form instead:
