You have questions. We are here to help you.

How can I secure my IT project from a legal standpoint?

Each IT project (software creation, development of connected objects, website development, etc.) includes a multitude of legal issues that need to be dealt with as soon as possible in order to anticipate and prevent possible difficulties.

With more than 20 years of multidisciplinary experience, we can assist you during all the stages of your IT project in all areas of corporate law (company creation, partnership agreements, etc.), tax law, commercial law and digital law.

Specifically, the digital law team can study the legal feasibility of your project for you to be able to determine, from the very beginning of your project or during its development, what is possible to do and what is not.

What should I include in my IT service contracts?

Every IT contract requires special attention, both upon drafting and upon negotiating. Indeed, every clause counts, and no clause should be overlooked. No matter how small a provision, the damaging consequences for your company, should a dispute arise, are not to be neglected.  Similarly, the parties you are going to enter a contract with, sometimes try to impose their conditions on you.  Even worse, they often have their own legal departments with which it seems almost impossible to negotiate.

With this in mind, we are here to provide you with personalized and transparent legal support, and help you write, optimize, and negotiate your IT contracts.

My reputation is being attacked on the internet, can you help me?

Absolutely! Whether you are a company or an individual we have a specific offer to address this issue, AVOREPUTATION. We can address all infringements involving your e-reputation: defamation and insults on the internet, identity theft, website counterfeiting, unfair competition, etc.

AVOREPUTATION is a unique and complete service combining legal expertise (lawyers, legal practitioners and bailiffs (huissiers)) and the technical skills (communication agency, computer specialists, etc.) needed to quickly achieve the expected result: the deletion and/or dereferencing of content that is harmful to you.

I want to launch my start-up: how should I go about it?

We have developed a specific offer, AVOSTARTUP which, as its name suggests, is specifically targeted for start-ups. This offer provides you with a broad range of services that can cover all your legal needs: setting up a company, drafting confidentiality agreements, drafting IT contracts, legal advice, etc.

This AVOSTARTUP offer is a bundled offer and is also totally flexible to your needs according to your size, your project and your progress. In addition, we are aware that starting an entrepreneurial project is often complicated and can be expensive. We therefore offer payment facilities over a year to allow you to get the answers you need while keeping your budget under control.
