This is how your name will appear as the signatory for the employer.

Agreement

What is the job title?

Provide role for your employment agreement.

What is the compensation?

Provide pay for your employment agreement.

Is this a salary or an hourly wage?

Salary is a set amount each pay period. Hourly is pay for time worked. Either way, overtime is paid if the law requires it for the role. This question does not decide that legal classification.

Will the employee get the company's standard benefits?

This covers the benefit plans the company already offers people in similar roles, such as health coverage. It does not promise a specific plan, and the company can change its plans.

When does employment start?

Provide start date for your employment agreement.

Is employment at-will?

At-will means either side can end employment at any time, with or without cause, unless a statute says otherwise.

When should the agreement take effect?

Most agreements start today. Choose a custom date if you need a different effective date.

What is the effective date?

Pick the date the agreement should begin.

Which state's law should govern?

Usually the state where your company is formed or where you do business. Delaware is common for US companies.

Which jurisdiction?

Name the country or region whose law should apply.

Do you require any advanced terms?

Custom dispute language or other employment terms.

How should disputes be resolved?

Litigation means court. Arbitration is private. In most cases litigation is fine unless you prefer arbitration.

Optional. Describe it in your own words. AI will draft the legal wording from what you write here.
