Question
We are planning on hiring several freelancers for a larger software project. How can we make sure that the IP in code, planning and software created by the freelancers remains with us?

standard employment agreement should contain assignment of copyright over output supervised or managed by yourselves. There may be carveouts for infrastructure (eg libraries, open-source) or out of business hour projects (pet hobbies) but you have to be careful as some jurisdictions look at the contract to see whether you are actually disguising employees as freelancers.
