Consulting Agreement
Texas
How are revisions handled in consulting agreements?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of negotiating a consulting agreement with a potential consultant. I am trying to understand how revisions to the agreement should be handled. I am looking for clarity on the process for making changes to the agreement, including who is responsible for making the revisions, and the timeline for when the revisions should be completed.
Darryl S.
The party who originally drafted the agreement is typically responsible for making any necessary revisions based on change requests from the other party. Both sides should expect several rounds of edits with collaborative negotiation to reach a mutually agreeable final contract. For a smooth process, promptly respond to new drafts, clearly communicate requested alterations, compromise where needed, and maintain open and frequent dialogue until the agreement is finalized. Stay reasonable and transparent throughout to facilitate a positive ongoing business relationship.

How to renew a consulting agreement?
I have been consulting for a company for the past year, and our current agreement is expiring soon. I am interested in continuing the consulting relationship with the company, and would like to know what the process is for renewing the consulting agreement. I am looking for advice on the best way to approach the renewal process to ensure the continuity of the agreement.
Luiza D.
Consulting agreements often incorporate a distinct clause outlining the procedures for renewal. If your current agreement lacks such a clause, it is probable that you will be required to execute a new agreement with the company. Furthermore, it is advisable to contemplate engaging a California contract lawyer to create a new consulting agreement for you, particularly if there have been modifications in the scope of work, deliverables, timelines, or compensation expectations.

Are confidentiality clauses in a contractor agreement common?
I am a small business owner looking to hire a contractor to help me with a project. I am concerned about protecting my business's confidential information and would like to know if it is common to include a confidentiality clause in a contractor agreement. I understand that it is important to protect proprietary information and would like to ensure that I am taking the necessary steps to do so.
David B.
Yes, confidentiality clauses are typical in contractor agreements. They are used to protect intentional disclosures, as well as incidental disclosures. An incidental disclosure is something learned by chance, such as overhearing a discussion between you and a client or seeing the client's project on your desk.

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.
