Graphic Design Agreement

A Graphic Design Agreement, sometimes called just a Design Agreement, is a document between two parties, the graphic designer and the client, for design services. Many businesses, including those solely for information services on the internet, often require graphic design work. Graphic designers can create everything from a business card up to an entire website. In fact, many graphic designers have their own freelance careers and therefore would require an agreement like this for each of their clients.

In this Graphic Design Agreement, the parties agree to the terms of the relationship between them, including such items as whether the works produced will be used for a limited purpose or any purpose and exactly what those works are.

In an agreement like this, standard contractual clauses are also included, such as choice of law and venue.
