Freelance Agreement
(for hiring freelancers)
Want to hire freelancers online from anywhere in the world? Hiring freelancers can be risky, especially when you’re hiring remotely. This template offers all the protections you need but also the flexibility to sculpt it to your unique business needs!
Benefits
Full ownership of all intellectual property the freelancer creates for you
Legal armour so that you can not be dragged to court in a different country
Complete protection of sensitive (business) information that may be shared
The right to suspend payments or not pay at all if the freelancer does not deliver
Critical protections to avoid paying late fees, penalties, employment taxes, or expenses you have not agreed upon
“Thanks to this platform, I feel more confident in navigating the legal side of my business, allowing me to focus on what I do best – creating content.”
“These templates have been a lifesaver for my business!”
“As a social media coach to Creators myself, it's SO nice to have a trusted source like Selene to refer people to.”
What you will get with this Freelance Agreement
Hire globally: Flexibility that allows you to sculpt the freelance agreement to all types of freelance jobs and your unique business needs.
Clearly defined scope: Ensure that the freelancer understands the scope of work and responsibilities so the freelancer knows exactly what you expect.
Indemnities: Ensure that you are not liable for legal mistakes or copyright infringements by the freelancer.
Legal protection: Legal protection by outlining the terms of the agreement and specifying what happens in case of a dispute.
Crystal-clear remuneration: No more payment ambiguities and claims with clear rates, invoicing process, and payment methods.
No risk of employment taxes: Clearly state that the relationship is not an employment relationship (so the tax authorities will not assess it as an employment relationship based on the contract), including indemnities for the case where it is, in fact, an employment relationship (the freelancer carries the risk!).
Intellectual property protection (work for hire): Worldwide intellectual property protection, so anything the freelancer creates for you is yours only.
Customisable: Can be customised to meet the unique needs of each freelance relationship.
Let this Freelance Agreement take care of the legalities, so you can focus on what really matters - getting high-quality services from your freelancers all over the globe.

Absolutely! My contract templates are designed for global use, regardless of your location.
As a contract lawyer registered with The Netherlands Bar and with extensive experience in cross-border transactions, I have crafted these templates to accommodate legal systems worldwide.
The templates have been reviewed by licensed lawyers in France, the UK, Florida, and New York, ensuring their enforceability across different jurisdictions, including common law countries like the US and UK, civil law countries like those in the EU, and pluralist systems like Canada.
Please note that while these contracts offer a cost-effective solution to hiring a lawyer for a tailor-made contract, they're not a substitute for personalised legal advice. These templates serve as an accessible starting point, saving you thousands of dollars that would typically be spent on bespoke contract drafting.

Yes! When you agree to my terms & conditions at purchase, you automatically receive lifetime access to updates for your contract.
Every time I make a major update, you will be notified by email.
The latest version will always be available through the link provided at purchase, ensuring your contract remains current.
-
These contract templates are not simple two-pagers but detailed and comprehensive contracts meticulously crafted to encompass all necessary protections and considerations relevant to your business.
I prioritise thoroughness and clarity, yet my contracts are also designed with user-friendliness in mind.
Each contract comes with helpful comments and guidance to assist you through the drafting process.
So, while my contracts may not be condensed into a couple of pages, they offer thoroughness without sacrificing usability. With my guidance, you can confidently navigate the complexities of contracts and ensure that your business interests are well-protected.

The purchase of a contract does not create an attorney-client relationship.
Although Selene Snippe has created these contracts and is a lawyer by profession, Selene Snippe is not YOUR lawyer. As this Website is NOT a law firm, purchasing or downloading a contract does not establish any kind of attorney-client relationship.
An attorney-client relationship between you and Selene Snippe and/or Selene the Lawyer is only formed after you and Selene the Lawyer have entered into an engagement letter for specific legal services.
-
By purchasing a contract you are not entitled to email communication, calls, (virtual or physical) meetings, or any other type of communication with Selene the Lawyer and/or Selene Snippe.
These reusable contracts do not include access to Selene the Lawyer and/or Selene Snippe or any legal advice or feedback, and these contracts are priced accordingly.
-
The contracts offered on this website are non-refundable.
Please carefully review the details and descriptions of each contract before purchasing to ensure it fits your needs.
