You’re in the business of making others look good – online, in print and everywhere in between. In our current post-Bauhaus-inspired world – where the public unknowingly demands a seamless marriage of form, function and style – media creation is becoming an increasingly important profession.

In fact, in many ways, media and web developers are fighting the recession from the front lines. After all, you create the brands that inspire innovation; you’re the one’s constantly coming up with new ways that stir consumers to “buy” and “try”.

Guard Against       The Creep!

But since your job well, people think it’s easy. And as a result, pushy clients try to take advantage of your services. Nobody knows the “joys” of having clients continuously question invoices quite like a web development agency.

The Kelly Law Firm represents companies who work to preserve the integrity of the design and development community. Like you, we have a passion for innovation, a deep respect for good design, and an even greater admiration for web development companies that shape our collective taste and keep our eye on the future.

We understand the obstacles web development companies’ face including:

• the legalities of running an online service business

Design and Development Contract Legal Assistance

“Can you add X, too?” the client asks. And without fail, they become outraged when they’re asked to pay for the work to make X happen. This is project creep and every web agency knows its evils.

We’ll also assist with more complex, one-off contract negotiations that need to be executed with a laser-like focus.
