Technology disputes

Overview

Ambitious technology projects are rarely achieved without experiencing competing tensions. We help clients to achieve their commercial outcomes which minimise these tensions, avoid extensive disruption and business distraction, and safeguard relationship and reputation risk.

We focus on applying the right dispute resolution techniques by deploying smart, strategic solutions which support advantageous outcomes and avoid the expense and time involved with litigation. 

Our technology disputes team have the legal expertise and relevant industry knowledge to cut through issues in disputes that are core to aiding resolution. We also draw on a trusted network of respected technology professionals to provide expert input when needed. 

Disputes in technology projects often involve reputational risk, especially when the technology is customer facing. Our Technology Disputes team guides clients to find a path that helps retain customer confidence. 

While clients need focus on the abundance of technological change, we keep abreast of legislative changes which may impact their project outcomes. 

Recent changes to Australia’s unfair contracts terms have implications when entering complex technology contracts with multiple and multinational vendors. Our team is well versed on how to minimise risks under the new unfair contracts regime. This enables clients to remain confident in their decision while we take care of the project at hand.
