I will draft an ir35 compliant UK service or consultancy agreement
SRA Regulated UK Solicitor, Bulletproof Corporate Legal Contracts
About this Gig
Falling inside HMRCs IR35 legislation can cost freelancers, consultants, and hiring companies thousands in backdated taxes and penalties. A standard contract is not enough; you need an agreement explicitly drafted to demonstrate a genuine business-to-business (B2B) relationship.
As a licensed UK Solicitor (SRA ID 646929), I draft robust, IR35-compliant Consultancy and Service Agreements that protect your independent contractor status and clearly define your commercial relationships.
Key features of my drafting include:
- Clear negation of Mutuality of Obligation (MOO).
- Robust Right of Substitution clauses.
- Control and working practices definitions.
- Intellectual Property (IP) assignment.
- Liability, confidentiality, and payment terms.
Whether you are a consultant offering services, or a business hiring independent contractors, you need legal certainty.
Select a package, complete the brief requirements, and secure your tax and legal status.
