Software and Internet Law

Wagman Hurwitz assists clients with the intricacies of software licensing and of running your business on the Internet. Many companies have found out the hard way that even after paying their developer to create custom software or a custom Web site, they still don’t own the copyright UNLESS they negotiated for it and obtained an assignment in writing. Domain names are another asset we frequently assist clients to obtain, license or transfer.



How would you like to pay for custom developed software, only to find the developer then licenses another copy of the finished work to a competitor? The same is true for Web sites. Do you know who owns or controls your company’s domain name? What will happen if you decide to switch to a different hosting company? Can you take your domain name and Web content with you? How about the images used on your Web site? 

We can help with these and related issues whether they come up in the planning stages, or once they are in dispute.
