This web consultancy agreement template is designed to regulate the legal relationship between a web services company and a consultant employed by the web services company to provide development or other website-related services to the company.

This consultancy agreement precedent contains two alternative intellectual property clauses. The first alternative is an assignment of all new and existing intellectual property rights in the work produced by the consultant. The second alternative is a licence of the intellectual property in the work produced by the consultant. The particulars of the project can be detailed in the schedule to the consultancy agreement. The agreement should be signed by both parties.

This agreement template is drafted to protect the interests of the web services company, rather than the consultant. If you are looking for a pro-consultant document, you should consider our web consultancy terms and conditions template.
