What this usually involves

Development disputes usually come down to specification and acceptance. Both should be documented before work starts.

  • Specification, milestones and acceptance testing
  • IP assignment and open source usage
  • Escrow, warranties and support arrangements

Common questions

Who owns the code?
The developer does unless the agreement assigns it in writing to you.
What is source code escrow?
An arrangement where code is held by a third party and released to you if the supplier fails.
