How a Facilities Services Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Subcontractor Agreement in California

In 2024, a commercial cleaning corporation in California sought assistance with drafting a subcontractor agreement. The client was looking to enhance their existing contract by incorporating additional clauses, such as non-solicitation of services, insurance minimums, licensing requirements, and confidentiality measures to better protect their interests and ensure the quality of work from subcontractors providing janitorial services. Their goal was to create a comprehensive document that would clearly outline expectations for an indefinite working relationship. As a result, the client received nine proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $150 to $1,000, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of one week.
