Dear Client, The first step in any legal dispute is to review the contract thoroughly. Contracts typically define the scope of work, payment terms, and any clauses related to changes in scope or additional work. This will be a critical document in determining each party's rights and obligations. Further, the ownership of the code is a crucial issue. If the contract does not explicitly state the ownership of the code, Indian copyright laws may apply. Ensure that you have documentation showing that the code was developed using your resources and ideas.
