I will draft project based freelance agreement documents as a US attorney
Licensed Attorney for Your Freelance and Business Contracts
About this Gig
"I'll know it when I see it." Famous last words before a project goes off the rails. For project-based work, a detailed agreement isn't optional; it's essential for success.
As a licensed US Attorney (BAR ID: 367536), I will draft a project agreement that functions as your roadmap, defining exactly what will be delivered, when, and for how much. This eliminates ambiguity and ensures both you and your client are perfectly aligned from day one.
This Gig is perfect for:
- Web Developers & Software Engineers
- Writers & Content Creators
- Videographers & Photographers
- Consultants delivering a specific report or plan
Protect your project with clauses covering:
- Detailed Scope of Work: A precise description of deliverables and project boundaries.
- Milestone Payments: Tie payments to the completion of specific project phases.
- Acceptance Criteria: Define how and when a deliverable is considered "complete."
- Revisions & Feedback Loops: Set clear limits on the number of revisions to protect your time.
Stop projects from spiraling out of control. Order a rock-solid project agreement today.

FAQ
What's the difference between this and a service agreement?
A project agreement is for a single, finite piece of work with a clear start and end (e.g., build one website). A service agreement is for ongoing services (e.g., monthly website maintenance).
What are "milestone payments" and why are they good?
Milestone payments break up a large project fee into smaller chunks that are paid upon completion of specific stages (e.g., 25% after wireframes, 25% after initial build). This is great for your cash flow and reduces risk for both parties.
What is a Statement of Work (SOW)?
An SOW is a document that details the specifics of a project. My Premium package includes a reusable SOW template you can attach to your main agreement for each new project, saving you from drafting a new contract every time.
Can this contract help me avoid "scope creep"?
Yes, that is one of its primary functions. By tightly defining the deliverables and setting limits on revisions, the agreement gives you a professional, legally-sound way to request additional payment for work that falls outside the original scope.
What happens if the client cancels the project halfway through?
I can include a "kill fee" or termination clause that specifies you will be compensated for the work completed and may receive an additional fee for the early termination, protecting you from lost income.
