Specialized in IT law issues, we conduct litigation for employees and employers before the courts in the Rhineland and the Ruhr region on a daily basis. In doing so, we are confronted with all kinds of IT law issues on a daily basis: Warning letters in connection with file sharing, warning letters due to faulty or incomplete imprints, general terms and conditions and data protection declarations, incomplete IT contracts, faulty user agreements, infringements of trademark law, infringements of copyright law and many other competition law issues, which often arise in connection with IT law, data protection law and industrial property law. However, we also write separate employment contracts for entrepreneurs and executives, for the area of IT law.

The first thing to be said about this area of law is that IT law is still a very young legal discipline and relates to many sub-areas of other areas of law. If one used to speak of so-called EDP law or even computer law, the focus today is on terms such as IT law, Internet law and multimedia law. However, these are not to be considered clearly separate from each other, because each of these legal areas can, depending on the case, be interpreted and used in a variety of ways with regard to the legal scope.

Today, the legal field of IT law is generally understood by the Internet as the main medium of the modern information society. Therefore, IT law is the legal field to which all legal issues concerning the Internet are assigned.

IT law also includes technical processes and developments such as software and apps. As a law firm for IT law in Cologne, Kerpen and Witten, we advise our clients in these legal areas on a daily basis - from individual employed or freelance programmers to established software producing, developing companies. Within the scope of our IT legal advice, we accompany you in your IT projects and sometimes also draft your contracts. In the event of a dispute, we also actively participate in contract negotiations with the other party in order to represent your interests in a legally secure and clear manner.

Basically, as a law firm for IT law in Cologne, Kerpen, we enforce your interests both out of court and in court, if necessary.
