This is not legal advice. It’s a template you can customize and have a lawyer review.

What it emphasizes

  • • Client ownership of code and artifacts
  • • Clear scope and out-of-scope boundaries
  • • Straight hourly pricing and minimums
  • • Clean termination terms (you keep what's delivered)
  • • Dispute resolution (conversation first, not lawyers first)
  • • What happens after the project ends (data, access, credentials)
