Mercer Law PLLC is a law firm dedicated to serving businesses that engage independent contractors. 

In Washington, companies are relying increasingly on hiring independent contractors to avoid the costs, taxes, and hassles of hiring employees. The practice, however, carries significant risks. 

State and federal law set particularly strict guidelines for classifying workers as independent contractors, and enforcement agencies aggressively audit businesses for compliance. Businesses that misclassify workers are fined 3-5 years of back taxes (per contractor), and their contractors are immediately reclassified as employees. For many businesses, a worker classification audit can be devastating.

Mercer Law PLLC counsels businesses on the proper way to engage independent contractors, represents businesses in agency audits challenging their independent contractor classifications, and litigates unfavorable agency decisions in agency hearings and judicial appeals.
