The Colorado economy has evolved from one based on mining the land, to one based on mining the intellect as well. The drive for technological innovation often also propels contracting practices and the way companies do business into uncharted territory. Our technology lawyers offer the expertise critical to navigating the new legal issues introduced by technological innovation, and new contracts to accommodate new transactions. We counsel clients in all aspects of acquiring, protecting, and commercializing intellectual property rights and technology products and services. We work with both established and growth companies in technology industries, such as software, computer, biotechnology, e-commerce, IT consulting, telecommunications, and medical technology. We also serve “old economy” businesses in the automation and streamlining of their business practices, technology licensing and compliance, and protection of goodwill.
Our technology lawyers offer a wide variety of services, including trademark and domain name selection, registration and enforcement, preparation of software and database development and maintenance agreements, negotiation of joint development and strategic partnership agreements, and structuring of technology transfer and licensing agreements. We also handle technology asset acquisitions, OEM and VAR agreements, web design, hosting and co-location agreements, systems customization, implementation and support agreements, and Internet joint sponsorship and cross-linking agreements. We can also offer expertise in privacy and data protection regulation compliance, employee intellectual property development and assignment, trade secret development, use, disclosure and protection, intellectual property audits and intellectual property infringement and dispute resolution.
