Based on our business experience and expertise in software
applications, Lebow, Malecki & Tasch, LLC’s attorneys support
information technology businesses.
Our Technology Practice attorneys represent a wide array
of clients. We have business and legal experience in the creation, sourcing,
procurement, development and use of technology.
For our clients who create, sell, or license technology,
we understand the value of their intellectual property and how to both
protect and leverage those assets. Our knowledge of licensing, outsourcing,
related professional services, maintenance and support, and complex transactions,
from both the vendor
and user perspectives, enables us to negotiate the elements of a deal
that offers our clients the highest direct and indirect value for their
innovation. We can implement improvements to existing standard agreements.
We have firsthand experience in the technology sales process and will
help you establish
the shortest time to sale and reduce transaction costs.
We have decades of experience to effectively and efficiently
assist clients in the development of policies and procedures that address
legal risks and operational issues that arise from the use of technology
in the workplace, including policies on employee technology use, security,
and data privacy and confidentiality.
Our practical business experience and technical knowledge
help clients purchase and implement complicated information systems to
achieve their business objectives. We work closely with each client's
in-house team and technical consultants to articulate the organization's
business objectives, define goals in enforceable contract language and
negotiate reduction of technology costs and risks.
The acquisition and the implementation of information
systems require in-depth understanding of the business being served. Acquisition
issues include: vendor representations on system performance and integration,
ownership of custom programming, acceptance testing, the scope of warranties,
vendor liability, indemnification, insurance, remedies for varying degrees
of breach of warranty or system failure, dissolution process definition,
maintenance obligations, and upgrade and enhancement opportunities.
Implementation issues include: security, balancing the
need for access to information with confidentiality requirements, antitrust
compliance, disaster avoidance and recovery; and meeting security, regulatory,
licensure and accreditation requirements in the U.S. and international
jurisdictions. We also address dissolution and transition/transfer issues
proactively.
We have drafted and negotiated most types of information
technology contract. A few of the types of transactions or matters frequently
