How to amend a contractor agreement?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a contractor agreement with an independent contractor. After signing, I realized I need to make a few changes to the agreement due to changes in the scope of work. I need to know how to amend the agreement so that the changes can be legally binding.
N'kia N.
Amending a contract, including an independent contractor agreement, usually takes three main steps: First, to amend a contract, the parties must usually agree to new terms. This sometimes requires the parties to negotiate. Second, when the parties to an agreement memorialize it in a written contract, they typically must also sign a written document to amend it. This means that they will need to draft an amendment that accurately reflects the proposed amendment(s). Third, once the parties have drafted an amendment that they are comfortable with, each will sign and will usually receive a signed copy of the fully executed contract amendment. However, note that amending some contracts can be much more complex. For assistance with negotiating or drafting a contract amendment, including for an independent contractor agreement, you should contact a knowledgeable attorney practicing in the appropriate jurisdiction.

What should I do? How should I proceed this situation.
Hello, I sign a sale contract to buy a dog with a purchase of travel cost. The sales person received a payment and started the process to ship the puppy. But it came a hiccup when the puppy to small to be in a crate that was not secure. The airport was trying to charge 1000 to 1500 which the sales person did not have and wanted me to pay it. I could not pay it and the sales person could not supply the crates from a local store. So we made a agreement he would pick the dog up from the airport and refund the money back. It has been 6 hours and the sales person did not refunded and now I can not get in touch with him. What should I do
Jane C.
Do you have a written agreement? Does this agreement deal with what happens in the event that either party breaches the agreement? How did you pay? If you paid by credit card, you can call and cancel payment.
