Technology law

I assist technology entrepreneurs, innovators, and businesses of all shapes and sizes in their legal and compliance needs, including by setting up appropriate legal frameworks for their platforms or other technology solutions or services. Doing so typically involves preparing various service agreements, licence agreements, as well as ensuring compliance with the regulations governing online sales of goods. It also involves advising clients on complex IP, personal data protection, as well as other related matters.

Contracts

Whether you are providing goods, services, or digital content, or purchasing them from third parties, well-drafted commercial contracts should form the backbone of any business transaction. Amongst others, your contracts should clearly and accurately specify any deliverables and payment terms, so that both parties can be sure what to expect, and operate efficiently as a result.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property (IP) encompasses a variety of intangible assets, including copyright, trademarks, design rights or patents, as well as domain names, trade secrets, and goodwill. For businesses, IP has significant value, often even higher than that of their tangible assets. As a result, it is worth considering how your business protects its IP.

Personal Data Protection

Any business that processes personal data is expected to remain accountable for their data processing practices. Customers and suppliers often wish to see evidence of this, especially in data-intense transactions. Non-compliance with the applicable data protection rules can attract significant penalties that can have a detrimental financial as well as publicity effect on your business.

Business Law

The daily running of your business often requires support and practical guidance from the business and corporate law perspective.
