It is legal but you must have the right documents and work permits in order to work within the US is you are not a citizen. It is difficult for models to sign with agencies outside of their country unless they already have an agency and work out a "mother agency" agreement. Mother agencies network with other agencies outside of their area (usually outside of the country) in order to get more exposure and opportunities for its models.

Why is agency law essential to the existence and operation of a corporation?

Agency law allows employees to write legal documents, checks, and write agreements for the company. Without agency law the company would not be able to function because to grow a company you need to have employees or agents to act on the company best interest. One person can run a shop, but having 20 shops, you need several agents to write payroll checks, hire and fire employees, and set up contracts with vendors. When acting as a agent, you are to do whats best for the company. If you told your agent to demolish one of your old facilities, and the building fell on a house next to it, you would not hold the person liable. The company, you, are liable. He works for you, he is your agent. He was acting in the best interest of the company, and an accident happen. On the other hand, if the agent what under the influence of alcohol, then you could hold him personally responsible. At that point the agent was not acting in the best interest of the company.

What is a disclosed dual agency in real estate?

In the US, although regulated by individual states,dual agency must be disclosed to all parties in the transaction. Undisclosed dual agency may result in a loss or suspension of a real estate license. For example, Agent A and agent B both work for Remax DC. If Agent A has a buyer who writes an offer on Agent B's listing there is dual agency (assuming that Ahas a buyer's agency agreementand B has a listing agreement) because both buyer and seller have an agency relationship with Remax DC as the principal. This is perfectly legal as long as all parties are aware and give their consent.

What is contract of agency?

Agency law is concerned with any "principal-agent" relationship; a relationship in which one person has legal authority to act for another. The relationships generally associated with agency law include guardian-ward, executor or administrator-decedent, and employer-employee. Agency is an agreement, express, or implied, by which one of the parties (called the principal) entrusts to the other (called the agent), the management of some business; to be transacted in his name, or on his account, and by which the agent assumes to do the business and to render an account of it. As a general rule, whatever a man may do by himself, except by virtue of a delegated authority, he may do by a designated agent


How is a real estate broker different from a real estate agent in California?

A real estate "agent" is licensed to practice real estate, but only under the direct supervision of a broker. Without a broker to oversee their activities and take responsibility for their actions a real estate agent is not allowed to practice. There is a trick of language here though, and it has to do with Agency Law. By law, an agent is a person who acts on behalf of someone else. A real estate broker is also called a real estate agent. This is because they are acting as an agent for the buyer or seller in a transaction. So the broker has the legal title of "broker" generally and the title of agent in relation to his or her client. A real estate agent working under a broker is an agent only to the broker, the broker is agent to the client.
