Consulting Agreement (General) (OR)
A consultant brings the power of an outsider's perspective to solving problems along with their specialized skills and knowledge. There are countless reasons why a company may require the services of a consultant. You might, for instance, need help in expanding product offerings, increase efficiency, or upgrade your servers. Whatever your reason for needing a consultant, you will want to have a written agreement in place to help eliminate potential confusion or misunderstandings.
This consulting agreement is flexible and can be used for a variety of different types of consultants. It will allow you to set out such details as:
- The services the consultant will provide, in as much detail as you require
- How the consultant will be compensated and invoice for their services
- What should happen in the event of a dispute
- Whether the consultant will be required to maintain insurance under the terms of the agreement
It is suitable for use whether you are the consultant or the company requiring the consultant's services.
