IT Disputes
Our Commercial team has vast experience in assisting clients with IT disputes.
Another important aspect of our work in this area is the resolution of copyright infringement and trade mark disputes either in relation to software or online.
For further information about our work in relation to trade mark / copyright infringement please click here.
We have an excellent record of resolving IT related disputes without recourse to the Courts either through negotiation, mediation or another form of ADR. However, where necessary (for example a dispute cannot be resolved or an emergency injunction is required), we are able to draw on a wealth of experience of experience of litigating disputes in the High Court or the Intellectual Property Enterprise Court.
What we do best:
- Understanding the problem
We are used to working with technology and we take time to work with you to understand the problem.
- Designing an appropriate response
Some disputes require an immediate injunction application and some disputes require a more nuanced approach combining formal court action, correspondence and settlement discussions. We are good at getting the balance right.
- Being responsive
Our clients’ problem is our problem. We like nothing better than working closely with a client to resolve a knotty or complicated problem.
- Commercially aware
Not all problems are resolved by brute force and litigation. We try hard to understand the commercial imperatives for our clients and to provide advice that reflects the commercial realities of the situation.
- Show of strength
In most disputes there is a time to show our teeth and be tough. Whether that is in correspondence, in settlement negotiations or in court. We have the experience and maturity to recognise when and where that is required to increase your chances of securing a settlement and/or putting our client in the best possible position in Court.
