I don't normally approve test posts, but in this case there was a
problem. It seems to be over now.

Hi, I need some help understanding the various laws and terms
regarding a placement agency.

My firm ABC will be going into business with a company let's call them
LMO to provide them with a resource/subcontractor that they could
place at one of their clients let's call the client XYZ.

My firm ABC will be hiring someone on a 1099 basis as a sub-
contractor. That person does not have a company of their own and
neither do they have any insurance.

My company ABC is already incorporated. I have liability insurance for
my company and I am covered under it.

I am trying to find out what kind of insurance would I need now that I
am hiring someone on a 1099 basis as a sub contractor. The reason is
that the sub contractors do not have a company. They are individuals.
Since they do not have a company they do not have any business
insurance either.

They are saying that they do not need to form a company and they can
use his/her personal name and I can pay them a 1099 on their name
directly.

All,

Interested in issues like copyright and patents as they apply to
programmers and software? If you're in the DC area, come hear Robert
J. Kimmer, Attorney, speak about these issues at the Feb. 12th meeting
of the Greater Washington Chapter of the ICCA. See below for details.
