A hitman (alternately, hit man), also referred to as a contract killer, is a hired assassin, usually in the employ of organized crime. Hitmen are often hired for an extended period of time by one group and paid per job. In all countries with functioning judicial systems, a contract with a hitman is unenforceable at law (in the sense that the client cannot sue for specific performance and the hitman cannot sue for his pay). Both a hitman and his customer can be found guilty of murder or homicide.
