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)
