Employment Agreement
Oklahoma
Are 1099 employees responsible for there own break time and lunch time?
The job im at I am a 1099 employee but they tell us when to get here when our breaks are when our lunch is and when we leave. Doesn't that technically mean that we are W2 workers?
Jonathan K.
First of all, there is no such thing as a 1099 employee. You are either an independent contractor or an employee. Second, yes, if you are being told when to take a break or have lunch, then you are probably an employee and not an independent contractor.

Terms and Conditions
Texas
Are terms and conditions legally binding?
I recently started a business and I am in the process of creating a website for it. As part of the website, I am creating a Terms and Conditions page. I want to make sure that the Terms and Conditions are legally binding so that if I ever need to take legal action against a customer, I am protected. I have read some articles about Terms and Conditions, but I would like to get a professional opinion on the matter.
J.R. S.
Yes, terms and conditions on a business website can generally be enforceable against consumers. The enforceability of terms and conditions on a business website against consumers is not straightforward and depends on various factors, including the type of agreement used, the presentation of these terms, the consumer's acknowledgment of these terms, and the specific provisions within these terms. However, the enforceability primarily hinges on how these terms are presented and whether the consumers were given reasonable notice of these terms. There are three types of electronic form agreements typically used by websites to incorporate terms and conditions: "click-wrap", "browse-wrap", and "sign-in-wrap" agreements. "Click-wrap" agreements necessitate the user's express assent to the terms and conditions by clicking a button that reads "I Agree" or some other method of explicit agreement. In these cases, the consumer is presumed to be aware of the additional terms and conditions and consciously chooses to proceed with the transaction. "Browse-wrap" agreements include terms and conditions either posted on the website, a hyperlink, or are accessible on the screen, but do not require the user's express assent. The validity of these agreements depends on whether a website user has actual or constructive knowledge of a site's terms and conditions prior to using the site. "Sign-in-wrap" agreements involve notifying users of the existence of the website's terms and conditions and advising them that they are agreeing to the terms when registering an account or signing in. Courts usually enforce these agreements when the notice of the terms was "reasonably conspicuous." This can include situations where a hyperlink to the terms and conditions is present on nearly every webpage of the company's website, or when the webpage from which the user indicates their assent contains a conspicuous hyperlink to the agreement. However, there are exceptions to the enforceability of these terms and conditions and much depends on the type of business you are and the specific terms and conditions that you impose on consumers through your website.

Liquor License
Maine
Need help for a liquor license for a lounge/club
Need a liquor license asap in portland, or around. Maine.
Craig M.
It is a multi-step process to obtain a liquor license in Portland, Maine. You must obtain approval from the City, after first obtaining approval from the Code Enforcement Officer, Public Services, Fire, Health Services, Treasury, and Police. You may also need to create an LLC or other business entity, register with the Secretary of State, obtain an EIN, among other things. I can assist at my normal hourly rate of $200, and would require a $5000 legal advance, payable through Contracts Counsel to assist. The fee Contracts Counsel charges is nonrefundable, otherwise, itemized invoicing will be periodically provided, and any unearned fees will be reimbursed to the client at the end of the project.

Business Partnership Agreement
Texas
Business partnership agreement for short projects?
I am looking to start a business partnership with another individual. We are both interested in working together on short-term projects, but we want to ensure that our partnership is legally binding and properly structured to protect both of our interests. We have discussed the details of our agreement, but I would like to have a lawyer review the agreement to ensure that it is legally sound.
Jimmy V.
In a partnership, each of you is liable for all debts of the partnership. Your personal assets are at risk if anything goes wrong. You should set up as a limited liability company. That way, only the LLC can be liable, and you will not be personally liable. To se up an LLC, you need a filing with the state, an Operating Agreement, and an Employer Identification Number from the IRS. The Operation Agreement is, in effect, a partnership agreement. I offer flat fee packages for these services. Thx. JV

Independent Contractor Agreement
Texas
If you 1099 could they make you pay for lunch
Working as a Flagger work 10hrs with no breaks
J.R. S.
The short answer is yes. As an independent contractor, you bear the risk of profit and loss, employee rules regarding breaks and meals do not apply, nor does the overtime rules.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
