I've spoke to a number of umbrellas and asked them specifically about running two contracts. Two have also shown me paperwork, I just haven't made a final decision yet.
In my conversations with half a dozen or so to date, I haven't found any that had working restrictions.
They did make it clear that if you billed (even a day) in a week you would pay the full weekly fee but aside from that all they said was that it was my responsibility to ensure my tax affairs were in order. A couple would do SA for a fee, some wouldn't touch it if you have two inomes (but my accountant can handle that anyway).Comment

Was just making sure you had done some dilligence.
Good luck. And remember, if both clients want the same work, you can charge them both for the same time.See You Next TuesdayComment
