Are you planning to modernise your internal infrastructure with a new cloud provider? The technical specifications are clear – but what about legal protection? What regulations apply to availability, liability, data protection and intellectual property? Who is responsible if services fail or sensitive data is affected?

In a world where IT processes are business-critical, a legally compliant contract is not just an add-on to the project – it is its cornerstone. We help you translate complex technologies into clear, robust contractual structures. Whether software development, SaaS, AI or open source – we translate your business model into precise legal frameworks that enable innovation and minimise risk.

Complex technologies. Clear contracts.

IT contracts are not standard products – they are as individual as the technologies they are designed to protect. Whether for cloud projects, agile software development or the use of AI systems, every technical solution raises specific legal issues.

We understand both legal and technological language – and translate it into contracts that protect your business objectives. Our contracts are not only formally correct, but also practical: clearly structured, comprehensibly worded and designed with potential conflict scenarios in mind.

We think ahead: How can default risks be contractually secured? Which guarantees are realistic – and enforceable? How can intellectual property be protected in the long term and the GDPR be integrated in a legally compliant manner? Our goal is to put your projects on a solid, resilient foundation – both legally and economically.
