Adding to this, I found out late in my freelance career that a contract can be as simple as an email laying out “I’m going to do {scope of work} for {payment details} within {timeline}” and having the other person reply that they agree.

Obligatory: I’m not a lawyer, check your local laws, this worked for me but it may not apply to every situation.

Just putting it out there in case anyone feels daunted about trying to draft up contracts (make sure you have something in writing before you start working on stuff).
