As a freelance graphic designer in Illinois, transferring high-value vector assets and source files requires more than just an email handoff. Under the Illinois Statute of Frauds (740 ILCS 80/1), transactions exceeding $500 necessitate written documentation. This Bill of Sale protects your intellectual property rights under the DMCA while ensuring compliance with the Illinois Consumer Fraud Act and BIPA. By formalizing the transfer, you mitigate risks of scope creep, late payments, and disputes over deliverable ownership, providing a clear proof of transfer for sophisticated design projects.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Freelance Graphic Designer:
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.
Copyright infringement
Contracts should include clear terms about the ownership and use of copyrighted materials, specifying which party holds the rights and any licenses granted.
According to 740 ILCS 80/1, any sale of goods or deliverables valued over $500 must be in writing to be enforceable. Using a formal Bill of Sale ensures that your transfer of design assets—regarded as 'goods' or 'deliverables'—is legally recognized by Illinois courts if a payment dispute arises.
Yes. While the Bill of Sale formalizes the transfer of ownership of physical or digital assets, it serves as critical evidence of the specific licenses or rights granted at the time of sale. This helps prevent future copyright infringement by defining exactly what vector assets or source files were transferred and under what terms.
If your design deliverables involve biometric data—such as high-resolution photography or facial recognition elements—the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) requires strict consent. This Bill of Sale includes recommended disclaimers to ensure you are not assuming liability for biometric data handling post-transfer.
The 'Purchase Price' and 'Seller's Representations' clauses in this document create an enforceable contract. Under the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act (820 ILCS 115/), while primarily for employees, having a clear Bill of Sale provides the necessary 'proof of debt' for independent contractors to pursue collection or legal action for unpaid commercial services.
