Chances are you are not even insured if you are on the client's premises without a contract. If anything goes wrong you might find yourself personally responsible. It's not a good idea ever to work without a signed contract.

HMRC ask you to clarify the terms that were in place but clearly if you say that you had an unfettered RoS they will not necessarily just take that at face value.Comment
