What Our Software Contracts Protect
The Custom Software Development Agreement protects your intellectual property rights whenever you are hired to develop software and applications for a client. It sets the terms of use, price and payment for your work, and gives you the right to collect payment for work performed to date in the event the client terminates the Agreement. It also limits warranties and guarantees related to your work and caps your total liability to the client. This Agreement also prevents your client from hiring your employees away from your firm.
