Penningtons understands the business and legal issues affecting both customers and suppliers in this sector. Members of our team have spent time working in the industry which helps to ensure that we deliver a commercial and pragmatic service.
Types of work with which we are involved in this area include both contractual transactional work and also regulatory compliance advice. This can range from systems procurement and outsourcing services contracts, to reviewing websites for compliance with e-commerce, distance selling, consumer protection and data protection laws.
Our clients range from international software and hardware manufacturers and suppliers to businesses and other organisations such as hospitals purchasing IT systems. Our advice for our clients in this area does not have a purely narrow IT focus, but also extends to wider business support - for example handling domain name disputes, brand protection, marketing, consumer protection and intellectual property advice.
