Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
What fees are usual in an independent contractor agreement?
I am an independent contractor who is in the process of signing an agreement with a client. I am looking for more information about the fees that are usually associated with such an agreement. I want to make sure that I am aware of all the fees associated with the contract so that I do not encounter any surprises down the line.
Steven W.
There are no set fees that are in an independent contractor agreement. Generally, what is covered are the fees or costs associated with the work or project and they may also include expenses incurred related to the work or project, such as travel and/or accommodations.
Contracts
Bill of Sale
Illinois
Is a bill of sale necessary for a private vehicle sale?
I recently sold my car privately and did not use a bill of sale, as both parties agreed on the terms verbally and exchanged payment. However, I am now concerned about potential legal issues that may arise from not having a written agreement. I would like to know if a bill of sale is necessary for a private vehicle sale to protect both the buyer and seller.
Randy M.
A bill of sale is not legally required in every state for a private vehicle sale, but skipping it can lead to unnecessary problems. Whether your state mandates it or not, having a signed bill of sale is one of the simplest ways to protect yourself during and after the sale. It provides written proof of the transaction, including the sale date, purchase price, vehicle identification details, and whether the vehicle was sold “as-is.” If the buyer fails to transfer the title right away or incurs tickets or tolls before doing so, you could still be on the hook unless you have clear documentation showing you sold the car and on what date. While a verbal agreement can be legally enforceable, it’s not enough to protect you if a dispute arises. Let’s say the buyer later claims the car wasn’t in the condition you described, or you’re contacted by law enforcement or a toll agency asking why your plates are still connected to unpaid charges. Without a bill of sale or other written record, it becomes your word against theirs. In contrast, a simple, signed document can resolve that question instantly. That’s why states like New York, Vermont, Montana, and a handful of others require a bill of sale as part of the title transfer process. In states where it’s not legally required, such as California or Texas, the DMV still recommends using one for your own protection. In your situation, where the sale has already taken place, it’s not too late to create a retroactive bill of sale and ask the buyer to sign it. Include the basic facts: date of sale, buyer and seller names and addresses, VIN, odometer reading, sale price, and a short acknowledgment that the car was sold “as-is” without warranties. Most buyers won’t object to signing something that protects them as well. You should also file a release of liability or notice of transfer with your state’s DMV if you haven’t already. This document tells the DMV that you're no longer the owner and helps protect you from liability if the buyer fails to register the car right away. For future transactions, always use a bill of sale, even for low-value vehicles or sales to friends and family. You can find attorney-drafted versions through legal platforms like Contracts Counsel. The time it takes to fill it out is minimal compared to the potential headaches of dealing with a DMV problem or legal dispute down the line. Make sure the buyer transfers the title quickly. Until they do, you might keep getting their tickets and toll bills in the mail, and you'll have to deal with the headache of proving you no longer own the car if any legal issues come up. You may also want to keep a copy of any communications you had with the buyer confirming the sale, such as emails, texts, or a receipt of payment. These won’t replace a formal bill of sale, but they could help support your position if needed. If you encounter resistance from the buyer or complications with the DMV, that’s a good time to speak with an attorney in your state who handles vehicle sales, consumer protection, or civil liability. The attorneys here on Contracts Counsel would be happy to assist you.

Commercial Lease
New York
What's the entire agreement clause in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a commercial lease for my business premises. I am concerned about the “entire agreement” clause in the lease, as I am not sure what it covers and what the implications are for me and my business. I am looking for clarification on the clause and any potential risks associated with it.
Matthew S.
This is a contractual provision which aims to prevent the party relying on it from being liable for any statements or representations (including pre-contractual representations) except as expressly set out in the agreement. It generally precludes the introduction of parol evidence or evidences of other agreements that are not in writing.

Business Purchase Agreement
New York
Can I update a business purchase agreement post-signing?
I recently purchased a business and signed a purchase agreement. However, I have since discovered that the agreement does not include certain terms that I believe are important to the transaction. I would like to know if it is possible to update the agreement post-signing to include these additional terms.
Damien B.
Hello. You mention updating a purchase agreement. It sounds like your goal is to modify the agreement. And generally, the agreement itself would set forth how modifications can occur. Usually, modifications must be in writing upon the consent of the parties to the agreement. Therefore, if one party wants to modify the agreement because that party wants to include additional terms, the parties to the original agreement can enter into a written modification or addendum to the agreement.
