The Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases and accepts from the Seller, the following described personal property (the "Property"): [item_description]. The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer has had a full and adequate opportunity to inspect the Property prior to the execution of this Agreement and accepts the Property in its current condition as described herein.
The total purchase price for the Property is [sale_price] (the "Purchase Price"), payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller on or before the Sale Date. The Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price represents the fair and agreed-upon value of the Property as negotiated between the Parties at arm's length. Upon receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller shall be deemed to have been fully compensated for the sale, transfer, and conveyance of the Property, and the Seller shall have no further right, title, or interest in or to the Property or the Purchase Price.
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer that: (a) the Seller is the sole and lawful owner of the Property and has full right, power, and authority to sell, transfer, and convey the Property to the Buyer; (b) the Property is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, claims, charges, and restrictions of any kind whatsoever; (c) the Seller has not previously sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered the Property or any interest therein to any other person or entity; and (d) the Seller will defend the Buyer's title to the Property against any and all claims and demands of any person or entity claiming an interest therein.
Upon execution of this Agreement and receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller hereby irrevocably transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer all of the Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims of any kind. Title to and risk of loss of the Property shall pass from the Seller to the Buyer upon the execution of this Agreement and payment of the Purchase Price. From and after the transfer of title, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for the Property, including its care, maintenance, insurance, and all risks of loss, damage, theft, or destruction. The Seller agrees to execute and deliver to the Buyer any and all additional documents, instruments, or certificates as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to evidence or effectuate the transfer of title to the Property.
5.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the transaction is consummated, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 5.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the sale and purchase of the Property. 5.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. 5.4 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both Parties. 5.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 5.6 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.
The Seller provides emotional, physical, and informational support only. The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller is not a medical professional, does not perform clinical tasks (e.g., vaginal exams, fetal heart monitoring), and does not provide medical advice. Seller makes no guarantees regarding the medical outcome of the birth. Interaction with healthcare providers remains the sole responsibility of the Buyer. This clause is intended to limit liability in accordance with Indiana professional standards and common law negligence principles.
In accordance with the Indiana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act, the Seller warrants that all services and items described in this Bill of Sale will be provided as stated. The Purchase Price represents the total consideration; any additional fees for mileage, 'overage' hours, or extra postpartum visits must be agreed upon in a written amendment to avoid deceptive pricing claims. Any 'on-call' availability constitutes a reserved service window for which the purchase price is non-refundable except as expressly stated herein.
Consistent with Indiana's recognition of at-will relationships, either party may terminate the ongoing service component of this agreement at any time. However, the Buyer acknowledges that the portion of the purchase price allocated to the Seller's specialized education, prenatal prep, and 'on-call' reservation is earned at the time of the signing of this Bill of Sale and is not subject to refund once the on-call period has commenced.

In Indiana, doulas must clearly differentiate their holistic support from medical practice to avoid scope-of-service violations. Whether you are selling birth support packages or transferring specialized lactation equipment, a localized Bill of Sale ensures compliance with the Indiana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act and explicitly defines your non-medical role, protecting you from birth outcome liability and payment disputes.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Doula:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
Birth Outcome Liability
Include disclaimers in contracts that clarify the doula's role as non-medical and state explicitly that birth outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Scope of Practice Violations
Draft clear scope of service documents that delineate non-medical support functions to avoid accusations of unauthorized medical practice.
Medical Advice Boundaries
Explicit contractual terms prohibiting the provision of medical advice and adherence to guidelines that require referral to medical professionals for medical issues.
For this bill of sale to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
State Regulations
The regulation of doulas is predominantly at the state level. Few states, such as Oregon and Minnesota, have voluntary doula certification programs. These programs often provide guidelines on practice standards and client collaboration.
Enforced by State Health Departments
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
While doulas are not typically covered entities under HIPAA, those who work within or have affiliations to healthcare systems may need to adhere to HIPAA standards to ensure the protection of client privacy and medical information.

Recommended coverage: Professional Liability Insurance (Errors & Omissions) · General Liability Insurance
The Act requires transparency in consumer transactions. Your Bill of Sale must clearly state what is included in your birth or postpartum package to avoid 'late-stage' fee disputes or claims of misleading service descriptions, which are strictly regulated in Indiana.
Yes, by including a non-medical role disclaimer. Under Indiana law, doulas are non-clinical providers. This Bill of Sale clarifies that you do not provide medical advice or clinical tasks, which is essential for mitigating liability regarding birth outcomes.
Per Ind. Code § 32-21-1-1 (Statute of Frauds), contracts for the sale of goods or services exceeding $500 should be in writing to be legally enforceable in Indiana courts.
