9 months ago I sourced the contract directly myself with no agency involvement, the client asked that I operate via agency x, which was fine and this is how we have been working for the last 9 months.
The client has now moved away from using agency x ,and is now using GP , so from renewal GP will be acting as the agency, and this is where all this trouble started.Comment

That's even more reason to run away from a personal indemnity - if the existing agent sues Giant, then you're on the hook for their legal fees.Comment
