Document Overview
Having a virtual assistant agreement is important because it outlines the nature of the services with clarity, protects the interests of both parties and establishes a strong foundation for their professional collaboration.
Note: the Schedule containing the Scope of Work in this document provides a general example Scope. This should be adapted to reflect the needs of the parties.
The Legal Risk Score of a Virtual Assistant Agreement Template
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- The document allows the Virtual Assistant to adjust their fees with notice, potentially increasing costs for the Client unexpectedly.
- Intellectual property generated by the Virtual Assistant during the service period is automatically owned by the Client, which might discourage Virtual Assistants who wish to retain rights to their creative outputs.
- The Virtual Assistant is not allowed to subcontract any of their obligations without prior written consent from the Client, limiting flexibility in how they manage workload and resources.
