The Internet, E-Commerce and Information Technology Practice Team at Troutman Sanders is a cross-disciplinary group of litigation, transactional, intellectual property and communications attorneys who regularly counsel and represent clients in the technology field, as well as non-technology clients whose businesses are heavily dependant on technology or e-commerce. We not only provide our clients with regulatory compliance counseling and intellectual property prosecution and enforcement, but we also understand the importance to businesses of managing information and information technology throughout its useful life, from creation and development, through procurement, to implementation, maintenance and protection. Our lawyers help clients build brands, protect tangible and intangible information-related assets and avoid regulatory trouble. We have unique expertise in the area of online brand protection. Our lawyers provide advice, input, and a full array of services to help online businesses deal with phishing, online fraud schemes, digital brand abuse, online piracy, and related online security issues, whether it is providing a turnkey online monitoring and enforcement program or assistance in handling the occasional threat.
Whether users or vendors, our clients face an ever-increasing pace of change and technological convergence in an Internet age. Businesses are required to adapt or perish, and the constant demand for more resources, expertise and attention regarding technology issues can be disruptive to a client’s core business if not navigated surely and managed confidently.
