Common Mistakes
Mistake
Why It's Wrong
"Handshake deal, no contract"
Verbal agreements are unenforceable. A simple contract protects both parties.
"Skip IP ownership clause"
Without explicit IP transfer, the creator often retains rights by default. Always specify.
"No termination clause"
Without exit terms, either party is trapped. Define how and when the contract can end.
"Copy a template without reading"
Every clause should match your actual arrangement. Mismatched terms create liability.
"No dispute resolution"
Without a specified method (mediation, arbitration, jurisdiction), disputes escalate to costly litigation.
Disclaimer: These templates are starting points, not legal advice. Have an attorney review contracts before use, especially for high-value engagements.
