03 Client Engagement

Project Agreements

All project engagements require a written agreement (proposal, statement of work, or contract) signed by both parties before work commences. The written agreement will specify project scope, deliverables, timeline, pricing, and payment schedule.

Scope of Work

Work performed is limited to the scope defined in the project agreement. Any requests for work outside the agreed scope ("scope creep") will require a written change order and may result in additional charges and timeline adjustments.

Client Responsibilities

You agree to:

  • Provide accurate, complete, and timely information required for project completion
  • Designate a primary point of contact with authority to make project decisions
  • Review and provide feedback on deliverables within agreed timeframes
  • Provide access to necessary systems, credentials, and resources as needed
  • Ensure any content, data, or materials you provide do not infringe third-party rights

Delays caused by failure to meet client responsibilities may result in timeline extensions and additional charges.

04 Payment Terms

Fees and Invoicing

Project fees are as specified in the applicable proposal or service agreement. Standard payment terms are:

  • Fixed-Price Projects: 50% deposit due before work begins; 50% due upon project completion and delivery
  • Retainer Engagements: Monthly invoices due within 15 days of invoice date
  • Hourly Consulting: Invoiced bi-weekly or monthly, due within 15 days

Late Payments

Invoices not paid within the agreed timeframe may incur a late fee of 1.5% per month on the outstanding balance. We reserve the right to suspend work on any project where payment is overdue by more than 15 days.

Refunds

Deposits are non-refundable once work has commenced. For milestone-based projects, completed milestones that have been approved are non-refundable. Disputes regarding work quality must be raised within 14 days of delivery.

Taxes

All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for any sales, use, or other taxes applicable to services rendered in your jurisdiction.

05 Intellectual Property

Client Ownership

Upon receipt of full payment for a project, Lishy Consulting LLC assigns to you all rights, title, and interest in the custom work product created specifically for your project, including source code, design assets, and documentation.

Company Retained Rights

We retain ownership of:

  • Pre-existing tools, frameworks, libraries, and methodologies used in your project
  • Generic components and boilerplate code that may be reused across projects
  • Our internal processes, templates, and know-how

Where third-party open-source components are used, those remain subject to their respective licenses.

Portfolio Rights

Unless you request otherwise in writing, we reserve the right to reference your project in our portfolio, case studies, and marketing materials (without disclosing confidential information).

06 Confidentiality

Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of proprietary information shared during the engagement. "Confidential Information" includes business plans, technical specifications, financial data, customer information, and any other information designated as confidential.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that:

  • Is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving party
  • Was known to the receiving party prior to disclosure
  • Is independently developed without reference to confidential information
  • Must be disclosed by law or court order

We are happy to sign a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before any substantive project discussions. Please request one at hello@lishytechconsulting.com.

07 Warranties & Disclaimers

Our Warranties

We warrant that:

  • Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner
  • We have the right to enter into agreements with you
  • Deliverables will materially conform to agreed specifications at time of delivery

Disclaimer of Warranties

Important: Except as expressly stated above, services and deliverables are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that software will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free from security vulnerabilities after delivery.

Technology products involve inherent risks. We are not responsible for issues arising from third-party platform changes, hosting environments, or circumstances outside our control after project handoff.

08 Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Lishy Consulting LLC's total liability to you for any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our services shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to us in the three (3) months preceding the claim.

In no event shall we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, loss of business, or reputational harm, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you in full.

09 Termination

Termination by Client

You may terminate a project engagement by providing written notice. You will be responsible for payment of all work completed up to the termination date, plus any non-cancellable third-party costs incurred on your behalf.

Termination by Company

We may terminate or suspend services immediately upon written notice if:

  • You fail to make payment within 30 days of the due date
  • You materially breach these Terms or a project agreement
  • You engage in conduct we deem abusive, fraudulent, or illegal

Effect of Termination

Upon termination, all amounts owed become immediately due. We will deliver all completed work product upon receipt of payment for work performed.
