How To Draft An Agreement Between Me And My Freelance Writers?
This is only for a website, I want someone to create articles, contents that i can put on my website.
I found some sample agreement templates online, what else are needed? Can anyone add more clauses to the below listed phrases:
Writer represents and warrants that the Project (or any part of it):
- is plagiarism-free and original (is not owned by any third party fully or partially and does not contain any previously produced text, “copy-pasting”);
- contains full and absolutely correct references to third-party authors;
- contains quotations of texts by third-party authors that are no longer than one (1) sentence or fifteen (15) words per each quote, and not exceeding 15% of the total Project text, with obligatory indication of page or paragraph of cited source;
- has not been obtained by unlawful means;
- to Writer's knowledge after due inquiry, has not been previously published in any manner or medium, specifically including but not limited to, print or electronic means.
Also, do I need the consent of any third party lawyer, legal counsel or whatever with regards to contracts? Or is it okay to make a contract just between the two of us (me and my writer)?
How is the process when it comes to copyrights, etc?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Without being aware of it, people make contracts all the time. It is just that when these are reduced into writing that people panic. You don't need lawyers for written contracts but it is sometimes helpful because they use precise wording and are aware of legal points that you may not have thought of. Here, your template is unimpeachable. Use that and don't worry. It covers all you could reasonably need.
