Engaging independent contractors without a written agreement is a common, expensive mistake. A solid independent contractor agreement documents the scope of work, payment terms, intellectual property ownership, confidentiality, and the parties' classification.

Misclassification of workers carries real exposure. We draft agreements that document the contractor relationship clearly while pointing out the practical factors that the IRS and Arizona agencies actually weigh.

For businesses that engage many contractors, we create a standard agreement template you can use comfortably and adapt to specific engagements. For one-off engagements with high stakes, we draft custom agreements.

Nicole approaches contractor work the same way she approaches every business document: practically, plainly, and with the goal of avoiding tomorrow's dispute today.
