The Problem
Platforms like Upwork and Fiverr let clients sneak in exploitative clauses. Most freelancers sign without realizing what they're giving away.
“All work product, including unused concepts, becomes the exclusive property of the Client in perpetuity across all universes...”
Limit IP transfer to final deliverables only, with a license for the rest.
“Payment will be issued within 90 business days of final project approval, at the sole discretion of the Client...”
Negotiate net-14 or net-30 with milestone-based payments.
“Contractor shall not engage in any competing work for a period of 24 months following project completion...”
Remove or limit to 3 months for direct competitors only.
