Anyhow - it doesn't matter how much time you've got: get the contract checked. Not just for IR35, in fact IR35 may be the least of the worries the way case law is going, but there can be all sorts of things lurking in there. Are you liable for consequential damages? If so, run a mile (maybe). How about liabilities? IPR? Patents? Reciprocal rights to terminate? Handcuff clauses? Provision of software/tooling? What extended warranties are there after the contract end period? Do you really want to risk being called back a year or even two later to fix a bug?
Get it checked. It only takes a day or two. Contract extensions are different, you may wish to take a fly on them if there are no changes, but I'd always get a new contract looked over.Comment
