Independent Contractor Agreement

What are the key provisions that should be included in an Independent Contractor Agreement?
I recently started working as an independent contractor for a company, and I have been asked to sign an Independent Contractor Agreement. I want to ensure that I am protected and that my rights and responsibilities are clearly outlined in the contract. I have heard that there are certain key provisions that should be included in such an agreement, but I am not sure what they are. I want to seek legal advice to understand what provisions should be included in the agreement to protect my interests and ensure a fair working relationship with the company.

Hello! My name is Damien Bosco. My law office is in Long Island City, across from Manhattan. Some key provisions of an independent contract agreement include the scope of work and the payment terms. An important provision discusses intellectual property rights. Define who owns any work product, intellectual property, or inventions created during the contract. Consider whether you want to retain rights to your pre-existing work or methodologies. There are other provisions also such as Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Clauses. You may want an attorney to review your full Agreement to suggest additions or edits. Feel free to reach out with any more questions!
Collaboration Agreement
California
Can a collaboration agreement be terminated if one party fails to meet their obligations?
I am currently in a collaboration agreement with another individual for a joint business venture, where we agreed to share resources, responsibilities, and profits. However, it has come to my attention that the other party has consistently failed to fulfill their obligations as outlined in the agreement, such as not contributing their fair share of financial resources and not meeting project deadlines. This has caused significant delays and financial losses for me. I would like to know if I have the legal right to terminate the collaboration agreement due to their breach of contract and seek compensation for the damages incurred.

I'm so sorry about this situation! The answer is yes. Under California law, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill a legal duty the contract created and causes damages for the plaintiff. (California Civil Jury Instructions Number 303.) The measure of damages is the amount that will compensate the aggrieved party for all the detriment caused thereby or likely to result therefrom. (Cal. Civ. Code § 3300.) The law generally allows you to suspend your performance, much like if you stop paying your cell phone bill, your account is cut off. Also, any contract entered into after January 1, 1986 that does not stipulate the legal rate of interest, the obligation shall bear an interest rate of 10% per year after the breach. (Cal. Civ. Code § 3289.) This applies regardless of whether the agreement was written or done orally. Typically, the aggrieved party is entitled to be returned to the same position they were in before the breach. You have some options you can explore: You may want to consider just writing a formal demand letter. You can find it here - https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/document-form-checkout/119 You can file a lawsuit in your local court. If you’ve already sent a bunch of letters, then the truth is this is the only way to compel them to do anything. Best of luck! Dolan
