I would like to get my contracts checked over to see if they fall within IR35. At present I get clients via agencies, therefore the agent does the contract. However now I want to start doing my own.

Let's say I was in a lengthy contract with a 4 week notice period on both sides.
And let's imagine I wanted to get out of the contract really quickly, within the notice period.
This would be breaking the terms of the contract, and I would be a scoundrel.
