The Regulatory Landscape
Contractor Classification Rules Keep Changing. Your Clients Cannot Afford Agreements That Fall Behind.
Four areas of employment law are creating more agreement work for firms right now.
The DOL Classification Rule Is in Active Flux
State Laws Outpace Federal Standards
Misclassification Penalties Are Getting Steeper
Existing Agreements Need Regular Audits
The Capacity Equation
Your Attorneys Are Billing at Partner Rates. They Should Not Be Drafting Contractor Agreements.
Think about one client with 30 contractors on their roster. Each agreement needs to address scope of work, IP ownership, confidentiality, classification language, and state-specific compliance. Now multiply that across your full client list.
That is a significant drafting load. And when a new rule drops, like the DOL's proposed rule in February 2026, every affected agreement needs to be pulled, reviewed, and revised. The work is necessary. But it does not need your senior attorneys to do it.
The Solution
We place trained legal professionals directly into your firm. They work full time, follow your templates, and draft and review contractor agreements under your attorneys' supervision.
Your attorneys focus on strategy and client relationships. Your legal professional handles the agreement volume. Your firm takes on more work without adding to your permanent headcount.

Multi-State Compliance Drafting
Drafting agreements that address the classification rules of every state where your client has contractors. Covers stricter ABC test states like California alongside federal baseline requirements.
IP and Confidentiality Provisions
Drafting intellectual property ownership clauses, confidentiality agreements, and trade secret protections that hold up when a contractor relationship ends on bad terms.
