Business Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Business Contracts
Terms of Service
Washington
Should I cover updates in my terms of service?
I am the owner of an online retail business that sells products and services to customers. I am in the process of creating a terms of service agreement for my business and I am wondering if I should include language that would cover updates to the terms of service in the future. I want to make sure that I am protecting my business and customers from any potential issues that may arise due to changes in the terms of service.
Merry A.
Yes. There are at least two ways to do this. The better method is to send amendments to the TOS to all clients, and have them agree to each amendment if and when it arises. The poorer method is to simply refer to any future amendments when the client first signs the TOS as being incorporated automatically; I don't think that's a good idea.

My company is going to have a contract deal with another company from Togo. And we have to find a Senior Advocate of Togo to represent us because we couldn't go there for the signing ceremony. But the problem is, we still don't know the average cost to hire a senior advocate when it comes to power of attorney. Can you help us by giving the average cost so we know how much money we can negotiate? Thank you so much for your help.

Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
Can I set performance metrics in the contractor agreement?
I am a small business owner who recently hired an independent contractor to help with some of my projects. I want to ensure that the contractor is held accountable for their work, so I am looking to set performance metrics in the contractor agreement. I am hoping to find out the legalities of doing so and what kind of metrics are legally allowed to be included in the agreement.
N'kia N.
A business that hires an independent contractor should be careful not to confuse an independent contractor relationship with an employment relationship. Treating an independent contractor like an employee can result in the law ultimately determining that the contractor is actually a "misclassified" employee. In North Carolina, "performance metrics" typically apply to employees, not independent contractors. This is because the "independent" in "independent contractor" means that the hiring party does not "control" (manage, monitor, supervise, etc.) the contractor like it would an employee. The hiring party is entitled to hold the contractor accountable for the results that it hires the contractor to achieve. However, the independent contractor is entitled to determine the manner, means, and methods of achieving the desired results. With that all being said, it is important for the parties to an independent contractor relationship to have clear expectations. An independent contractor agreement should outline the essential terms and conditions of the engagement. These might include such terms as definitions of the deliverables, deadlines for the deliverables, remedies for the independent contractor's failure to produce the deliverables by the agreed-upon deadlines, and special considerations. A knowledgeable North Carolina attorney can advise on the legalities of the proposed terms and conditions of an independent contractor relationship that is to be governed by North Carolina law.

Consulting Agreement
Texas
How are deliverables defined in a consulting agreement?
I am a small business owner and I am looking to hire a consultant to help me with a project. I am looking to understand how deliverables will be defined in the consulting agreement so that both parties are clear on expectations. I want to make sure that the consultant is held accountable for the work they are delivering and that I am satisfied with the outcome of the project.

Purchase And Sale Agreement
Washington
Governing law in a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a business and have been presented with a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am looking to better understand the governing law that would be applicable to this agreement, and any potential implications for the agreement. I am looking for advice on the law that would be applicable to this Purchase and Sale Agreement, and the potential implications for the agreement.
Merry A.
Good morning - I am a WA State attorney. The purchase and sale agreement should, itself, specify the governing law that would be applicable; if that term is not already part of the PSA you were presented, it should be added. If you are buying a business in WA, normally the PSA will say that WA law will apply, but if you are buying a franchise, it's possible that the PSA will say something like that law of Delaware may apply. Washington has good governing law for this type of agreement. I also suggest that you discuss any concerns with your buyer's agent, and possibly request a WA State attorney to review all the documents before you sign anything.

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.
