About this Gig
Hiring freelancers, developers, or marketing agencies without a watertight contract is a massive legal risk. If you do not have a proper "Work For Hire" clause, the contractornot youowns the intellectual property they create. Furthermore, IRS misclassification of employees as contractors can lead to devastating tax penalties.
As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #007968), I draft comprehensive, legally enforceable Independent Contractor and Vendor Agreements that protect your business, secure your IP, and ensure strict classification compliance.
What This Gig Covers:
- Independent Contractor Agreements: Clear distinction of contractor status to avoid IRS/Department of Labor penalties.
- Intellectual Property & Work For Hire: Ironclad clauses ensuring your company owns 100% of the code, designs, or copy produced.
- Statement of Work (SOW) Templates: Clear frameworks for project scope, deliverables, and payment milestones.
- Non-Disclosure & Non-Competes: Protecting your trade secrets and client lists.
Secure your intellectual property and hire with confidence. Place your order now.

FAQ
Why is a Work For Hire clause vital?
Under US Copyright law, the creator owns the work by default. A Work For Hire clause legally transfers that ownership to you.
Will this protect me from IRS misclassification?
I draft the agreement to reflect independent contractor status, which is the first line of defense against misclassification audits.
Can I reuse this contract for multiple contractors?
Yes. I draft these as master templates so you can use them repeatedly by simply updating the attached Statement of Work (SOW).
Is this valid in my specific state?
Yes, I include choice-of-law and jurisdiction clauses tailored to your specific US state.
Do you cover software development specifically?
Yes, the Premium package is highly recommended for software development to cover source code ownership and bug-fixing liabilities.
What is a Statement of Work (SOW)?
An SOW is an attachment to the main contract that defines the specific tasks, deadlines, and payments for a particular project.
