FAQ

Questions about
Free Independent Contractor Agreement Template

Straightforward answers. No marketing fluff.

What is the difference between an independent contractor and an employee in India?

An independent contractor runs their own business and is not subject to the employer's control over how work is done — only what is delivered. Misclassifying an employee as a contractor can lead to tax penalties and labour law liability.

Does an independent contractor agreement protect me from labour law claims?

A well-drafted contractor agreement significantly reduces misclassification risk. LegittAI's templates include contractor-specific language that clearly establishes the independent nature of the relationship.

Who owns the IP created by an independent contractor?

Without a written agreement, contractors may retain IP rights to their work. Our templates include an IP assignment clause that transfers ownership to the client. LegittAI flags if this clause is missing.

Can I include a non-compete clause in a contractor agreement?

Yes, but enforceability varies by jurisdiction. In India, non-competes during an engagement are generally enforceable; post-termination non-competes are more restricted. LegittAI flags overly broad non-compete terms.

Is my contract data secure on LegittAI?

Yes. All data is AES-256 encrypted. LegittAI is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified. We never train AI models on your contract data.
