Computer & Internet Law

Computer Law

Computer law covers the acquisition, license, development, and use of software, computers, and related hardware as well as other forms of technology. Computer-law counseling can protect buyers and sellers when entering into purchasing or leasing agreements as well as specifying the rights and obligations of the parties when entering into development or licensing agreements. In the area of computer law, Lanier Ford can assist in—

  • The clarification of contractual rights and obligations.
  • Preparation of development and licensing agreements.
  • Protection of ownership rights in high technology.
  • Drafting of purchasing, leasing, and service agreements.
  • Development of requests for proposals (RFPs), requests for quotations (RFQs), and statements of work.

Internet Law

With the ever-increasing pace of change occurring every day in the arena of Internet law, it pays to have someone who can keep you informed on the changing landscape.
