We take your IT rights into our own hands
The importance of IT law is growing just as quickly as information technology is developing. It is an area of law that has many points of contact with other areas of law, such as copyright law, contract law and data protection law.
IT law regulates the legal relationships between all parties involved in relation to information technology or IT services. IT contracts can therefore also deal with various topics: from the provision of hosting and cloud services to the creation, licensing or maintenance of software.
Whether software contracts, IT contracts, general terms and conditions or questions about GDPR, data protection and IT law: at our law firm in Vienna, we are at your side from A to Z.
As a specialized lawyer, Schaunig and his team support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), start-ups, family businesses and expanding companies in Austria and throughout Europe in all matters relating to IT law.

Why IT contracts are important
Innovation drives companies forward. Being and remaining on the legally compliant side is the be-all and end-all – and the best safeguard for your company.
This is precisely why IT law contracts must be watertight in all respects. Whether liability, warranty or intellectual property rights: only a legally compliant structure avoids conflicts and court proceedings in advance.
It is important to note that traditional contract law is often unable to clearly clarify all issues or special features in the IT sector. It often requires adaptations that are specifically tailored to the IT sector. You should therefore consult a specialist lawyer when drawing up contracts in this area.
When drafting the contract, this ensures that all parties know what their rights, obligations and services to be performed are. It also includes provisions on delays, data protection, GDPR and the protection of intellectual property.
As an IT law attorney with a law firm in Vienna, we are a reliable partner at your side and avoid legal stumbling blocks before they arise by drafting and reviewing your contracts.
