Retainer Agreement Maker
Create a clean monthly retainer agreement. Enter the hours, fee and renewal terms — the agreement document updates live, then print it or download it.
Please note: this tool creates a template to organize your terms. It is not legal advice and does not make a binding contract. For enforceable agreements, consult a qualified legal professional.

Tips
- Price retainers so your effective hourly rate is fair — divide the fee by the included hours.
- State clearly whether unused hours roll over or expire at month end.
- A 30 day notice period is standard and protects both sides.
- Send the signed agreement back by email so both sides keep a copy.
