Licensed NSW Solicitor Australian Business Law
About this Gig
Engaging independent contractors in Australia requires precise legal drafting to avoid the severe penalties associated with "sham contracting."
As a licensed NSW Solicitor, I draft clear, highly protective Independent Contractor Agreements that establish a genuine contractor relationship, ensuring compliance with Australian law.
My agreements focus on protecting your business by clearly defining:
- Scope of services and payment milestones
- Clear designation of independent contractor status
- Strict Intellectual Property (IP) assignment to your business
- Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure (NDA) terms
- Limitation of liability and insurance requirements
- Termination rights
Whether you are a business hiring freelancers, or an agency building a team of subcontractors, I provide premium legal documents that mitigate your legal risks. Protect your IP and business operations today.
