I’m Just a Freelancer… Do I still need a contract?

A well-crafted contract clearly outlines the scope of your services, establishes expectations for deadlines and payment, and defines the responsibilities of both parties.

Even as a Freelancer, having a written contract is essential.

Having a written contract protects you from liability and misunderstandings.

Setting professional boundaries

Not only does a written contract set a professional boundary between you and your client, but it also serves as a safeguard in the case that disputes arise. You will have peace of mind knowing that both you and your client are on the same page from the beginning of the project to the end.
