How an Education Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Licensing Agreement in Maryland

In 2022, a business in Maryland sought assistance with drafting a licensing agreement for a new educational curriculum. The client was collaborating with a local author to produce a book as part of this curriculum and needed a contract to clearly outline the partnership terms. This included establishing a royalty package, setting an expiration for the agreement, and defining intellectual property rights for both parties involved, especially as they moved forward with integrating the author’s work into their offerings. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $800 to $995, all submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of over a week.
