Israeli Freelancer Service Agreement
Trusted87/100Draft a tailored Israeli freelancer service agreement (heskem matan sherutim) between an independent service provider (osek patur or osek murshe) and their client. Covers scope of services, payment terms under the 2017 Prompt Payment to Suppliers Law, the independent-contractor declaration that lowers the risk of a court reclassifying the relationship as employment (yachasei oved-maavid), IP ownership of work product, confidentiality, termination, and indemnity. Use when a freelancer, consultant, designer, or developer needs a written contract before starting a project. Do NOT use for employment contracts, reviewing a contract you are about to sign, or day-to-day invoicing.

Israeli freelancers often start projects with no written contract, then get burned: a client pays months late with no recourse, or a long engagement ends with the contractor suing for retroactive recognition as an employee and winning severance and pension. A generic contract ignores Israeli law on reclassification, copyright defaults, payment timing, and VAT. This skill drafts a service agreement built around those Israeli rules.

I have worked as a contractor for one company full time for two years. What should my new service agreement say, and what should I change in practice, so I am not treated as an employee?
My client says they own everything I design for them. Under Israeli law, who owns the copyright by default, and what should the contract say if I want to keep or license my work?
What payment terms should my freelancer contract have so I am protected against late payment under Israeli law, and how do I add withholding-tax certificates?

Write a legally-valid Israeli will and navigate the inheritance process under the Succession Law. The skill drafts a witnessed will (צוואה בעדים), which Israeli law does not require a lawyer for (though a lawyer's review is recommended): you write your wishes, date and sign, and two witnesses (who may not be beneficiaries or their spouses) sign too. It explains the four will types, how to deposit the will with the Inheritance Registrar, and how to get a succession order (צו ירושה, when there is no will) or a probate order (צו קיום צוואה, when there is a will). Use when you want to write a will, deposit it, or when a relative has died and you need an order. Note: an enduring power of attorney needs a certified attorney (see israeli-elder-care-navigator), and a contested estate or complex assets need a lawyer. This skill is not a substitute for legal advice.
