Default Re: Self employment pitfalls ?

Russell, aside from the tax issues, are you sure that the client will work directly with you? Some companies contract exclusively with one or more agencies, and this could effectively shut you out from working with them.

Second, don't forget about liability insurance. Your contracting firm may be protecting you from liability. If you go out on your own, you may have to foot the bill for insurance.
