What is a Consulting Agreement?

A consulting agreement is a contract in which a consultant provides business advice or other consulting work to a business. Individuals often perform consulting roles, whether on their own or through an entity. Consulting work in the business world is particularly popular. For example, management consulting, financial and accounting consulting, human resources, and other types of corporate consulting are all common.

Why do I need a consulting agreement?

Any business hiring a consultant, whether for a short-term project or long-term relationship, should enter into a written agreement to govern the contract terms. If you are a consultant doing work for a business, you benefit by having a written contract to ensure you and the business agree to the scope of work, and that you are paid as agreed upon by the parties.
