How a Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft an Online Marketplace Agreement in Texas

In 2026, a business in Texas sought assistance with drafting agreements for its hyperlocal delivery marketplace. The client required a Driver Independent Contractor Agreement that would comply with Oregon's ABC test and HB 4002 regulations, ensuring that drivers, who set their own schedules and use their own vehicles, would maintain 1099 status. Additionally, the client needed a Seller/Producer Agreement that included necessary indemnifications and compliance clauses. As a result, the client received seven proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $499 to $2,000. All proposals were submitted to meet the requested deadline of one week, ensuring timely assistance for the client’s needs.
