Contractor agreement

Independent Contractor Agreement for Virtual Assistants

A starting-point agreement for hiring virtual assistants as independent contractors, or for working under one yourself: scope of work, payment terms, confidentiality, and ownership of the work product.

This is a general starting-point template, not legal advice. Have an attorney review it before use.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a written agreement when I hire virtual assistants as contractors?
It's recommended any time you're paying someone as an independent contractor rather than an employee - a written agreement protects both sides on scope, payment terms, and ownership of the work if something goes wrong.
What if I'm one of the virtual assistants being hired, not the one hiring?
The same template works from either side - it covers scope of work, payment terms, the independent-contractor relationship, confidentiality, and ownership of work product regardless of which side you're on.
Is this legal advice?
No. This is a general starting-point template covering common clauses - have a licensed attorney review it before you rely on it.

Yes - fill it out and download the PDF for free, with no account required.
