Left permie position for contract but still not signed - mistake?

First you get it reviewed by QDOS, Roger at Egos, Bauer and Cottrell or Abbey Tax. (Google for their details.)

You have to pay money for this and the cheapest isn't the best.

Then come back here when you've had it reviewed.

Normally good advice... but given he is clearly in financial need of this contract happening I wonder if he is just best getting it signed and getting on with it rather than arguing over IR35 friendly clauses which may or may not make the gig go away....

Yup, if it was me I'd be doing everything to make it happen to get on site and working. I'd pay attention in the contract to payment details so I'd know when money is due in.

If you're using a ltd co and are using one of the 'contractor' accountants, they my well have a specialist who will do this as part of the 'service'. I'm with SJD and they do.

They may do but it's a side business so will be selling knowledge they have at that point rather than specialising in this area so on that basis I'd be out.

So I guess you get your accountant to do your property conveyancing?

While an accountant understands contract and tax law it's best to use the right specialist for the job particularly if you ever find yourself needing legal comeback.
