I worked on a small prototype for a client. As part of the delivery I need to transfer copyright and full rights to reuse and redistribute the code that I have written.

I found some text to transfer ownership of images and videos on Google, but I need something specific to code written.

The work was produced in New Hampshire, United States.

A: 

Does your client have a legal department or a legal firm that they do busines with?

I would expect the client to write up the documents and have you sign them.

Usually I work under a contract, but this small project started based on a verbal agreement.

+1  A: 

If nothing else turns up, you could try taking one of the Open Source licenses and re-phrasing it so it applies to your client only. Maybe one of the licenses at Creative Commons suits for your purpose, they "link" to a range of OSS licenses.
