Your guide to getting paid, courtesy of your union

Freelancers Union members scored a major victory with the 2017 passage of the #FreelanceIsntFree law, a groundbreaking piece of legislation that protects freelancers from nonpayment and serves as a blueprint for similar laws in other states.

We're celebrating the anniversary by launching new resources for freelancers across the country to help fight back against nonpayment.

Learn how to use a contract, pressure clients to pay, and weigh taking legal action. If you live in New York City, we also have resources for filing a nonpayment claim and navigating small claims court.
