Why Do I Need a Software License Agreement?
If you operate a website, mobile application or software program, you need an agreement to define your rights and obligations to your users. This agreement is called a software license agreement or an “SLA”.
Over the years, we have helped numerous start-ups and experienced business owners alike with preparation of their SLAs, and in many cases can offer Flat Fee software license agreement creation services.
The Importance of a Software License Agreement (SLA)
An SLA will outline key terms of the relationship between you and your licensees and users, including areas such as privacy, use of data, fees, service levels, technical support, and intellectual property ownership. An SLA will also set limits on what users can do with the software, how and who can access it, and what you can do if a user violates the SLA.
Don’t Fall For DIY, Free, or Generic Online Forms
Some companies try to minimize SLAs by copying documents found online or using cheap online and hope they have done things correctly. The danger with cookie-cutter forms or “do it yourself” is that, if an SLA isn’t comprehensive and clear, it may not adequately protect your interests.
How it Works (What to Expect)
For a flat fee of $2,000, we will:
Contact you to gather information about the project;
Prepare a draft SLA; and
Answer questions and make minor revisions to the initial draft to get you closer to a final version.

Benefits of Our Flat Fee Software License Agreement Pricing Program
Many software owners need legal help creating an SLA, but are afraid of paying unknown, possibly huge legal fees. To ensure against potential “sticker shock” of a huge legal bill, our firm tells clients upfront what costs to expect to from us regarding their SLA.
With our flat rate services, you get the best of both worlds:
Professional Service
Price Predictability
You deserve trustworthy advice and professional assistance to walk you through the entire process of creating your SLA at an affordable, transparent, and predictable cost.
The Not So “Fine Print”
Limitations, Conditions, and Caveats
In some instances, a flat fee is not appropriate. Of course, we can most likely assist, and would tell you in advance what costs to anticipate.
Moreover, the flat fee does not include any additional work, such as significant revisions to the documents, or additional agreements such as software licenses, employment agreements, or other contracts. Any additional work would be extra and billed at our standard hourly rates.
