A consulting agreement is a document made between a consultant, or a consulting firm and a client, who can be an individual or an entity, that states the consultant will provide services to the client, per their request, in exchange for compensation.
A consulting contract typically includes a term of agreement, an overview of the services to be provided, prices for those services, cancellation of the agreement, and legalities about intellectual property, confidentiality, competition, indemnity, governing law, and acceptance.
You should draw up a consulting agreement any time you agree to the services of a consultant. This agreement allows both parties to agree to the project deliverables, payment structure, and legalities, and helps reduce any misunderstandings at a later date.
