A contract and a deposit upfront. Non-negotiable.

After 10+ years working with clients across dozens of industries, I’ve learned this the hard way: if you're freelancing without a contract, you're putting your time, your work, and your income at risk.

This Design Contract Template is your safety net.
It’s built specifically for freelance designers working on logos, websites, t-shirts — you name it — and it includes a plain-English walkthrough of every clause, so you know exactly what protects you and why.

Use it confidently. Customize it as needed.
