I'm in the US and I'm thinking of accepting a contracting position with a company that I've done contracting with before. The difference this time is that there won't be an agency in the middle. As agencies typically take > %20-%30, this would be a benefit for the business to hire me.
The only drawback I see is that without an agency in the middle, I'm open to lawsuits directly and I have to manage withholdings myself. I could easily hire an accountant to do the paper work but I'm concerned about laibility. Can anyone here that has actually worked as an independent Contactor in the US tell me the best way to work directly with a customer?
