Nice post. The part about ownership of IP is really important. I think many new freelancers don't realize they can still own some IP even if they doing the work for someone.

Thanks, Jen. Yes – I hadn’t thought about it until I saw this contract, and I didn’t really understand the point of the IP licensing until it was explained to me in the terms of a graphic designer licensing an image for certain usages. A really useful clause to have in any freelance contract.
