About this Gig
Worker misclassification is one of the most expensive legal mistakes a business can make. The IRS and state labor boards actively penalize companies that treat 1099 contractors like W-2 employees.
As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #280650), I draft Multi-State Independent Contractor Agreements that establish a clear, legally compliant barrier between your business and your freelancers.
This agreement will secure:
- Clear 1099 Status: Explicit language proving the worker retains independent control.
- Intellectual Property (IP) Assignment: Ensuring you own the work they create for you, not them.
- Multi-State Compliance: Navigating the different labor laws when hiring out-of-state contractors.
- Confidentiality & Non-Compete: (Subject to state enforceability) Keeping your business secrets safe.
A template downloaded from Google will not survive an IRS audit or a state labor dispute. Get it done right by a licensed attorney. Secure your business today by choosing the package that fits your hiring needs.

FAQ
What is worker misclassification?
It's when a business illegally classifies an employee as an independent contractor to avoid paying taxes and benefits. My contracts are drafted to help establish true independent contractor status.
Why do I need a multi-state agreement?
States like California, New York, and Texas have vastly different criteria for who qualifies as a contractor. A multi-state agreement navigates these complex variations.
Does this contract mean I own the copyright to their work?
Yes. I include strict "Work for Hire" and IP assignment clauses so that you automatically own everything the contractor produces for you.
Can you include a non-compete clause?
Yes, however, non-competes for contractors are highly restricted or banned in several states (like California). I will advise on enforceable alternatives like non-solicitation clauses.
Can I use this for overseas/international contractors?
This specific gig is optimized for US-based, cross-state contractors. However, my Premium package can be adapted for international freelancers upon request.
What do I need to provide?
I will need your business details, a general description of the contractor's duties, payment structures, and the states involved.
