What an Agent Agreement Must Include to Be Legally Enforceable
An agency agreement defines the relationship between the parties. It does not define what a third party may rely on. That gap is where principals get hurt. Apparent authority binds you to what your agent appeared authorized to do, judged by what the third party reasonably understood — not by what your agreement says. Narrow the grant of authority all you like; a counterparty who never saw the document is not bound by it. And revoking actual authority does not end apparent authority until the third parties who dealt with your agent are told. Duties arise without drafting. An agent owes loyalty as a matter of law. That matters because the remedies differ: breach of contract yields damages you must prove, while breach of fiduciary duty can yield disgorgement and, under New York's faithless servant doctrine, forfeiture of compensation paid during the period of disloyalty. For agents, the exposure runs the other way. Commission terms that leave post-termination entitlements unaddressed generate most of the disputes we see — and where sales commissions are involved, New York statute may supply remedies the agreement cannot limit.
