1099 Employee Contract Review
"I recently worked with Alisha on updating and correcting a complex independent-contractor agreement, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the quality of her work. She delivered a clear, well-structured, and fully compliant contract that protected my business while keeping everything fair and balanced for the contractor. Her attention to detail, fast turnaround, and ability to simplify complicated legal issues made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She caught items I never would have considered, strengthened key protections, and ensured the agreement met IRS and industry standards. If you’re looking for a professional who genuinely knows her field and delivers results you can trust, I highly recommend working with Alisha. She did an outstanding job."
