Legal Issues When Hiring Someone to Build Your Site

 
Given the costs associated with hiring employees, a vast majority of businesses now hire independent contractors to build and/or maintain their websites. This raises a host of legal issues.

First and foremost, it should be a requirement that the person or business developing your site agree to put everything in writing. As with any contractual situation, oral agreements are useless. Handshake agreements and oral promises simply are not enforceable in court. Sad, but true, so get it in writing!

The second issue to consider is jurisdiction. The World Wide Web is aptly titled. If your business is in Los Angles and your site designer is in Toronto, how are you going to enforce the agreement? At a minimum, you should designate the jurisdiction of any disputes as you desire, to wit, Los Angeles in this case
