The Flat Fee Retainer Agreement is designed for professional service arrangements in Belgium where parties seek to establish a predictable cost structure for ongoing services. This document is particularly useful when a client requires regular access to professional services and wants to avoid variable billing arrangements. The agreement, governed by Belgian law, typically includes detailed specifications of services covered, payment terms, professional standards, and compliance requirements. It's commonly used by consultants, lawyers, accountants, and other professional service providers who want to offer their clients budget certainty while ensuring proper risk allocation and clear service expectations. The document must comply with Belgian Civil Code requirements for service contracts, professional regulations, and EU data protection laws.
