IT Contracts

In the process of doing so, we know the issues to be addressed in agreements dealing with technology related subject matter, the likely priorities for different sizes of businesses, such as:

  • development agreements;
  • standard terms of licenses, such as terms of licence offered by Apple, IBM, and Google;
  • maintenance of confidentiality and management of confidential information with contracts;
  • trademark, copyright and patent infringement of inventions and works;
  • acquisitions of IT services and intellectual property in technology;
  • outsourcing, insourcing and services contracts;
  • international distribution agreements and licenses;
  • commercialisation agreements for technology transfer to industry;
  • research and development arrangements and contracts.

Specialised IT Solicitors

The expertise of our technology lawyers means that we avoid poorly structured and poorly worded contracts: an underrated factor causing disputes due to ambiguities and irrelevancies which appear surprisingly often in technology related contractual documentation.

Our understanding of technology issues allows us to communicate with our clients on the commercial issues which arise in projects, so that we are able to take care of the legal documentation to make the deal happen. What you would expect from a technology law firm.
