Information Technology, France 

 
 

Because we have in-depth knowledge of the information technology sector, we offer high added value service to our clients, major players in the sector or major information system users, which is adapted to their professional constraints and needs

The experience we have acquired over the past ten years on diverse and complex cases therefore enables us to provide the necessary legal support, but also strategic advice which is key to dealing with business challenges.

The information technology team headed by Stéphane Leriche and Frédérique Dupuis-Toubol and comprising about a dozen lawyers naturally works in very active collaboration with all the firm's services, and in particular with:

The team regularly works in both public and private sectors on operations involving strategic advice, contract drafting and negotiation for major national and international IT projects. We have developed a solid practice in outsourcing of major account information systems, whether this is on the basis of purely contractual scenarios or combined with capital based operations.

Beyond these contractual and regulatory practices, we help a great many clients handle their IT risks and resolve their disputes. In this regard it is essential that we conceive dispute resolution in our strategy of legal assistance in order to anticipate possible conflicts by providing assistance well in advance, and by the regular tracking of strategic projects.

This year again Bird & Bird was ranked as one of the leading law firms in France for the IT sector (Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners).
