I will write a founder IP transfer and confidentiality contract
US Licensed Attorney Expert Legal Drafting and Contracts
About this Gig
The #1 reason startups fail to secure venture capital funding? They don't actually own their Intellectual Property. If founders, developers, or contractors created code, designs, or business plans before the company was formed, the creator owns itnot the company.
I am Terrance Paul Huber, a US Licensed Attorney (Bar #61561). I draft bulletproof IP Assignment Agreements that legally transfer all rights, titles, and interests of intellectual property directly to your business.
I provide agreements for:
- Founders: Transferring prior inventions to the new C-Corp/LLC.
- Contractors/Freelancers: "Work for hire" agreements ensuring you own what you pay for.
- Employees: Securing IP created during their employment.
Documents cover:
- Full transfer of Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks
- Moral Rights Waivers
- Further Assurances (obligation to assist in patent filings)
- Confidentiality / Non-Disclosure
Investors will demand to see these documents during due diligence. Make sure your startup is protected from day one by a verified US attorney. Message me today to secure your IP

FAQ
Why do founders need to assign IP to their own company?
Legally, the person who creates the IP owns it. To raise money or sell the company, the business entity must own the IP, requiring a formal transfer.
Does paying a freelancer automatically give me the IP rights?
No! Without a written IP assignment or "work for hire" agreement, the freelancer usually retains the copyright.
Will this hold up during investor due diligence?
Yes, these agreements are drafted to meet the strict standards required by Venture Capitalists and angel investors.
