A Service Agreement is a legal arrangement between a contractor or service provider and a property or business owner when a particular service is being provided. These services can include anything from house painting, gardening, housecleaning or installing a garage opener. It is important to properly document these types of transactions in writing, particularly in situations that lend themselves to casual oral agreements. If you have an oral agreement with a service provider, problems may arise if there are misunderstandings about any of the terms.

This Service Agreement contains language that clarifies that an employer/employee relationship has not been created. This is referred to as an “at-will” employment arrangement where either party can terminate the relationship with no liability over and above what is included in the written agreement. Specifying this element is important not only in terms of liability but also for tax purposes.

Among others, these important provisions are included in this Service Agreement:

• Services to be Performed: This provision sets out the services to be performed by the contractor or service provider;
• Time of Completion: This provision sets out the expected date of completion for the project;
• Payment: The method of payment and when the contractor will be paid. This provision also sets out payment provisions for any expenses the contractor or service provider may incur;
• General Provisions: These provisions document any miscellaneous matters which may arise during the term of the agreement.
