Kaltons Solicitors and Lawyers

No one area of law covers all commercial activities involved in the application and exploitation of information technology. For us, information technology law loosely describes all those components of law that relate to the use of technology in business.

On most occasions, intellectual property, contract law and regulatory regimes cover the issues to be addressed in information technology deals. That being said, other areas of law should be considered to make the most out of information technology when putting the deal and issues together, as there are no clear boundaries between information technology, commercial and corporate law, data protection, ecommerce and intellectual property law.

Our unique strength is the ability to see across different areas of law from both a legal and technically asute viewpoint.

Here is a brief selection of the services we provide:

* reviewing existing contractual arrangements for legal and commercial effectiveness
* software licensing and sub-licensing including shrink-wrap and click-wrap agreements
* copyright protection & infringement
* franchising & distribution agreements
* trade mark registration, protection & infringement
* partnering, joint venture and joint development agreements
* drafting shareholders' agreements, special resolutions and other corporate matters;
* brand and image rights protection
* data protection & privacy law issues
* guidance on confidential information & trade secrets and the (often unexpected) protection it provides
* escrow agency services
