Hi Goran, Good that you asked before taking action.
- Do the client should close the hourly project and rehire me with a new fixed-price project?
Yes, the current contract should be closed and you can reopen another one with Fixed price terms.
- There are no logged hours and payments made, does this can affect my JSS if the client ends the contract without any payments?
