Legal Question in Employment Law in North Carolina
Independent Contractor Contracts
We are looking to establish contracts with independent contractors in various states. Given the differences in state law, do we need to establish/buy separate templates for each state or would we be able to customize based on one state?
Thanks,
Sam

Re: Independent Contractor Contracts
To be careful, you should have the contracts reviewed (or drafted) by an attorney and you should definitely have the attorney customize the agreements to ensure that you are in compliance with each state's laws. There can be different things raised in your contracts, among other things, for example noncompete agreements vary from state to state. To answer your specific question, you should be able to use one template, and customize each contract from that one style.
