Information Technology Law
Technology-driven businesses require strong legal foundations to scale and innovate. At HGNLW, I provide strategic legal support for IT contracts, digital transformation projects, compliance, and dispute resolution.
-
A good contract doesn't just manage legal risk – a good contract is a tool that drives your business forward. I support you with:
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating your IT contracts, including software development agreements, maintenance and service contracts, distribution agreements, framework contracts and more.
Creating scalable terms of service for your digital products, platforms, apps, and SaaS projects.
Reviewing and adapting third-party contracts to ensure they don’t put you at a disadvantage.
Offering practical negotiation support — from redlining to joining your vendor meetings or calls — to help close deals faster, and with better terms.
-
From product design to go-to-market strategy, I help you stay compliant while keeping the customer journey frictionless. My services include:
Developing or reviewing user-facing documents such as Privacy Policies, Cookie Banners, Terms of Use, check-outs, subscription cancellation flows, refund policies, product descriptions and claims.
Ensuring compliance with EU and German consumer protection laws.
Helping you navigate the line between persuasive UX and “dark patterns”.
Guiding you through the legal rules for influencer campaigns, programmatic advertising, referral programs, and affiliate partnerships and more.
-
Protecting your product starts with protecting your know-how. I offer:
Advice on IP strategy: what to register, what to keep secret, and how to document ownership.
Drafting and negotiating licensing models (B2B, OEM, white-label, API licensing) and open-source licensing strategies (including dual-licensing).
-
When you're scaling or modernizing operations, I help make sure your legal framework keeps up with tech. I support you in:
Structuring and reviewing digital transformation projects: cloud migration, ERP rollout, AI deployment, outsourcing and more.
Identifying regulatory requirements and embedding them early in your contracts and workflows.
Negotiating and drafting key contracts — implementation agreements, integration and migration services, software licenses, hosting and support terms.
Helping you understand internal and external risks.
Advising on robust governance models — including steering committee rules, escalation procedures, change request processes.
Ensuring robust documentation and audit trails for sensitive change projects, security implementations, or automation initiatives.
-
Disputes over deliverables, defects, scope changes, or missed deadlines can derail your operations. I support you with:
Pre-dispute risk analysis and strategy.
Settlement negotiations & escalation management
Representation in court and arbitration.
Emergency measures such as injunctions to protect trade secrets or suspend anti-competitive behavior.
