I would like to go contracting and I would like to setup a Ltd company but I am worried about the implication of IR35.
When speaking to agencies about jobs do they tend to have standard contracts that they send out and should I be asking them if their contracts are inside or outside IR35? I know they should be checked independently anyway but is this a question that I should be asking an agent to start with.
I have read articles stating you can negotiate your contract to make it better for IR35 but why would a lot of agencies bother with negotiations on contracts when they could just pick up the phone and speak to someone else who will take it unless its a very specilized job. What are peoples experiences of agencies and their contracts. Do most agencies want their contracts to be as far from IR35 as poss as they know a lot of people with Ltd companies will want this?
Also in regards to Ltd/umbrella, if for example a lot of my contracts were to fall inside IR35 would I still be financially better off with a Ltd company than under an umbrella?
