This is great advice. If the op hasn't done contracts before the Nolo press series is a great place to start. Contracts are a lot like programming with English(or insert native tongue here) and a lot less scary than people make them out to be. Hire a lawyer to review it before hand and know that contracts are a negotiation. As an aside, the mobile interface for this site makes it damn near impossible to make sure you are voting correctly. Sorry about the mistaken downvote.

No its rather poor advice IP and labour law law is complex and Nolo themselves that they only deal with simple matters.

  Agreed. Nolo books are very basic. The following is much better and does talk about many corner cases. It also is written specifically for the software-development case. http://www.amazon.com/Intellectual-Property-Open-Source-Protecting/dp/0596517963/ http://www.amazon.com/Intellectual-Property-Open-Source-Prot... The book is written by software developers turned lawyers, and provided me with some fresh perspectives on the nature of the law itself.
