Hi Everyone,
Let me just start by saying that I live in California. . . which always seems to muck everything up.
I have a graphic designer that I've paid well to tweak designs and now I'm realizing that I should have her sign over rights. Concepts are entirely mine and 1/2 of the designs had already been created.
My husband seems to think that since we live in CA, that special laws apply to "contract for hire".
Does anyone know how to gain rights to the designs without triggering other issues? She wants to sign something today and get paid -- and I want to pay her and move on with the project. Help! ~ Alicia
