Discuss your dealTechnology deals tend to break at the seams: who owns what the software produces, what happens when a service goes down, how data may be used, and who pays when something fails. Crystal Venning Law drafts and negotiates the agreements that settle those questions before they become disputes.
Crystal Venning is also a commercial litigator, admitted in New York, Texas and Georgia, so each agreement is drafted with an eye to how it would be read if a dispute ever reached a court or an arbitrator.
