    If it's a logo or something like that, I'll always hand it over. If it's an InDesign document or code for a web app or something more complex, I'll hand it over after carefully explaining that I offer zero free support, I won't un-fuck-up shit they tried to change on their own without getting paid and I don't take phone calls from their cousin because he said he knew Photoshop but doesn't know what to do with an Illustrator file. If it's a "trade secret", a particular illustration style I've created in Photoshop or something, I'll tell them they're getting the original but I'll flatten any layers that would show how I did something so the $6/hour "designer" they outsourced to doesn't start using my style and techniques on everything.
