Do you do "Work for Hire" TOP
No, I am an Independent Contractor and I do not do any work for hire. You can however hire me to design your web site, logo design, blog, template, print design, etc. as an independent contractor. If you're confused about the difference, please read on.
A work made for hire (sometimes abbreviated as work for hire and WFH) is an exception to the general rule that the person who actually creates a work is the legally-recognized author of that work. According to copyright law in the United States and certain other copyright jurisdictions, if a work is "made for hire", the employer - not the employee - is considered the legal author. In some countries, this is known as corporate authorship. The incorporated entity serving as an employer may be a corporation, an organization, or an individual.
