I once was in a similar position (in Germany, so laws may vary... ;-).


I was working on a Flash animation on a freelance basis and the client

later on demanded the FLA-files despite our agreement on the SWF-files.


Normally I charge an extra for giving the FLA-files to the client;

normally 2 to 3times the price for the SWF.


In my case, since the client did not want to pay more and threatened to

go to court, I went to a lawyer specialised in media law and got

advice. :) To make a long story short, the client payed my double fee

for the FLA. :)


It all depends on your written contract.
