Thank you for your comment. You are exactly right about the detailed scope of work to protect yourself even further.  Getting a deposit is key as well.  

To your continued success.

		<description>These are all great tips. I can add one more. Make sure you haver a very detailed &quot;Scope of Work&quot; section in your contract before you begin a project and a clause that says if the &quot;Scope of Work&quot; changes from what was originally agreed upon, there will be a corresponding change in the fee and delivery date.   Also, if this is your first assignment with the client, try to get a retainer fee up front (usually one third of the expected tota). That way, if someone decides to do an about face on the project after you have already committed many hours of work, you won&#039;t be forced into hiring a lawyer to get a kill fee.  Trust me; I&#039;ve seen it to often. Fortunately though, not to me-yet.</description>
