Software is both a creative realization as well as a technical product. This means that your company’s software is apt for protection through various legal regimes (copyright law, the law related to computer programs, database law, patent law, trademark law, etc.). However, these protection mechanisms each have their own specific purpose and limits to their scope. A correct legal qualification of your software is therefore crucial, not only to adequately protect it, but also to understand the concept of “counterfeiting” in a software context and to determine an appropriate strategy to act against infringements.

While ICT projects determine new ways of working and offer great opportunities, they often also entail challenges in terms of timing, delivery and support that may jeopardize their rollout. Watertight contracts and tailored legal assistance are indispensable to enable parties to collaborate in good terms and understanding. FENCER has the necessary expertise to assist you in drafting specialized IT contracts, while keeping the focus on maximizing your business opportunities.
