Graphic Design Service Agreement Template (Australia)

$385 (incl. GST)
Set boundaries, protect your creativity, and outline your process—before the first draft even hits the screen.

If you’re a freelance designer creating logos, branding, or digital artwork, you know the magic is in the detail—but so is the risk. This lawyer-drafted Graphic Design Service Agreement Template is designed to help Australian creatives like you protect your work, set clear expectations with clients, and stay legally covered—without the confusion.

Quick heads-up: this is a DIY legal tool, not professional legal advice. We always recommend seeking legal advice to make sure it suits your situation. But if you’re going to use a template, it may as well be one written by a lawyer who gets the creative industry.

Why You’ll Love This Template

✅ Built by an Australian lawyer with freelance creatives in mind;
✅ Stops scope creep, sets payment terms, and protects your IP;
✅ Easy to edit and ready to use for your next project.

What’s Inside the Agreement

✅ Clear project scope, inclusions/exclusions, and pricing in a Summary of Details;
✅ Start and end dates, with exit options if things don’t work out;
✅ Revision rules, rush job clauses, and realistic deadlines;
✅ Client responsibilities—like providing content on time;
✅ Delivery and storage boundaries (no more paying for cloud space post-project);
✅ Payment terms and GST clause (registered or not);
✅ IP + copyright transfer—ownership only after full payment;
✅ Business protection and liability limitation clauses;
✅ Compliance with Australian Consumer Law obligations.

Format and Ease of Use

Delivered as a Microsoft Word document, this template is fully editable.
Red text prompts guide you on what to customise, but we always recommend getting legal advice if you're unsure. Add your details, change red text to black, read it to ensure it aligns with your business arrangements and you’re ready to go.

How to Use This Agreement

  1. Complete the red-text Summary of Details and signature blocks;

  2. Add in project-specific timeframes and client info;

  3. Convert red text to black, send to client for signing;

  4. Both parties sign and keep a copy—done!

➤ Save the file (your download link expires after 24 hours)
