Intellectual property rights (IPR)
Rights in software – from a user’s perspective
Does your business or authority use standard software or customised software requiring that you enter into agreements?
Or are the agreements already entered into difficult to understand, inadequate or otherwise unsuitable?
Does your use of software require auditing or has that already been done?
Have you been met with injunctions preventing the use of software or are you at risk of such?

We have longstanding and extensive experience in assisting users with negotiating, drafting and interpreting agreements on rights in software, whether in the form of agreements on acquisition of intellectual property rights in custom software or agreements on the granting of rights of use, i.e. licence agreements, in respect of standard software.

- Litigating cases involving software agreements and alleged infringement of rights before the courts of law and arbitration tribunals
