Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT)

We advise clients on various transactional and regulatory issues relating to IT, media and telecommunications. Issues of IT law are important in almost every M&A transaction, most obviously transactions that involve an IT company as a target, but also those outside the IT business, where the major value of a target can depend on its rights to software, databases and other intellectual property rights.

We advise developers and manufacturers and also commercial purchasers on many types of IT contracts, including those for software development, distribution and licensing arrangements, and IT outsourcing; on e-commerce, including disclosure and privacy requirements, and the terms and conditions of distance sales; and on data protection and privacy issues, including rapidly expanding new areas such as cloud computing or social networking.

Our practice in media and telecommunications covers legal assistance in relation to network interconnection agreements, joint ventures in fixed and mobile telecommunication operations, retransmission systems, terrestrial and satellite broadcasting, Internet Protocol issues and mobile television. We provide constant representation of the interests of our clients before the regulatory authorities, and provide assistance in settling disputes relating to IT, media and telecommunications matters.
