Information Technology & eCommerce
At Hellmuth & Johnson PLLC, the principal attorneys in our Information Technology and eCommerce Practice Group have nearly sixty years of combined experience. This includes meaningful stretches both as in-house counsel and in private practice, in small firms as well as large international firms. This diverse background allows our attorneys to add value by bringing an unusual blend of legal and business experience and a multidisciplinary perspective to our clients.
We serve as lead counsel to negotiate "mission critical" IT and eCommerce engagements. We have drafted and closed hundreds of IT and eCommerce agreements, including complex seven and eight figure agreements for internationally, nationally and regionally recognized organizations. If asked, our clients would say we not only reduced their risks, but also saved them money.
