What is an Self-employed contractor agreement?
A Self-employed contractor agreement for the provision of software engineering services typically outlines the terms and conditions under which a self-employed contractor (often referred to as an independent contractor or freelancer) will provide backend and frontend software engineering services to a client or company.
Tips
- Governing Law and Dispute Resolution: Specify the governing law that will govern the agreement and procedures for resolving disputes. Consider including alternative dispute resolution mechanisms like mediation or arbitration to avoid costly litigation.
- Independent Contractor Status: Clearly state that the contractor is acting as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the client. This helps establish the legal relationship between the parties and avoids potential liabilities related to employment laws.
