Download the free toolkit growing agencies and service firms use to catch the red flags in vendor contracts, client agreements, and 1099 relationships before they cost you a deal, a dispute, or a client.
Most legal problems for growing businesses don't start with a lawsuit.
They start with a clause nobody read closely an indemnification provision, a scope-creep gap, a misclassified contractor. This toolkit is the same checklist Harbor & Main Law uses when reviewing these issues for clients, condensed into six short guides you can read in ten minutes each.
WHAT'S INSIDE
How to spot and negotiate a one-sided indemnification clause before you sign
The red flags to check before signing a client's own Master Services Agreement
How to structure your MSA and SOW so scope creep doesn't eat your margin
Illinois' ABC test for 1099 contractors and how to know if your team is actually compliant
