Episode Synopsis


In the latest episode of “If Walls Could Talk,” Jill Bloom engages in a conversation with Trent Cotney from Adams & Reese, providing a crucial update on a recent ruling that redefines the status of independent contractors. The ruling, issued this year, replaces the previous framework with a comprehensive multi-factored test. Cotney emphasizes key considerations such as the opportunity for profit or loss, investments in workers, the permanence of the relationship, control over the work, and the skill and initiative demonstrated by subcontractors, all of which contribute to the determination of independent contractor status.
