Loading...A legal consultant agreement is a type of document outlining the legal arrangement between a client and their attorney. A client might require a lawyer for a specific reason or they may keep one on retainer for an extended period of time. Regardless of the purpose of the arrangement, the agreement document should be looked over carefully by both parties. The agreement will detail what services are to be performed by the attorney, what kind of compensation they will be receiving, what is the duration period of the arrangement, and are the parties given the option to terminate. During the term of the agreement, the attorney will gain knowledge of the client’s personal and business life. Therefore, the consultant agreement protects the client’s proprietary and confidential information from misuse.
