Technology Disputes
CMS’s Technology Disputes Team advises clients on all types of disputes arising from the use and misuse of technology, across all industry sectors.
We advise on disputes arising from hardware and software implementation, outsourcing and cloud services, software licenses, website design, e-commerce platforms, payments systems and the use of machine-learning technologies. We frequently advise on disputes arising form the misuse of data or data breach.
We advise our clients on the disputes which are of greatest importance to their business and reputation. We have advised on some of the largest disputes conducted before the courts in recent years and we have extensive experience of all the major arbitration codes.
