FAQ
While Employment Agreements concern hiring persons to suitable long-term positions within the company, Consultancy Agreements particularly deal with services of an independent person to fulfil periodic or temporary requirements of the company. Employment Agreements are used to hire employees.
In Georgia, employers do not have to enter employment contracts with employees, but if they do, the contract is enforceable. Employers have a lot of freedom regarding the terms and conditions within the contact as long as they do not violate law or public policy.
A contract to do an immoral or illegal thing is void. If the contract is severable, however, the part of the contract which is legal will not be invalidated by the part of the contract which is illegal. Disclaimer: These codes may not be the most recent version. Georgia may have more current or accurate information.
Most of the time, there is nothing you can do to get your job back because Georgia is an “at-will” employment state. That means your employer is allowed to fire you for almost any reason.
Georgia is an “employment-at-will” state. This means that in the absence of an enforceable employment contract or violation of federal law or any anti-discrimination laws, employees in Georgia can be terminated at will.
Consultants who work for consulting firms provide their services to client companies on behalf of their employer . They are full-time employees of the firm and they have the benefits typical for employees, so they are not independent contractors. They aren't considered employees of any client companies, however.
Under Georgia law, for a contract to be valid, there must be an offer, acceptance, consideration, and mutual assent. See O.C.G.A. § 13-3-1. In the context of email communications, an offer can be made through an email, or contemporaneous emails, containing terms of a proposed agreement.
A consulting contract should offer a detailed description of the duties you will perform and the deliverables you promise the client. The agreement may also explain how much work you will perform at the client's office and how often you will work remotely.
Like other independent contractors, consultants are not full-time employees. Working with and paying them requires a different kind of legal documentation. This document is called a consulting agreement.
