Poroy Law Firm

Information Technology Law

Protecting rights in the digital world.

Every trace left online produces a real, legally significant consequence.

Overview

As technology has become part of everyday life, disputes have steadily moved onto digital ground. A single post can spread within seconds, which makes a violation of personality rights difficult to reverse; in the online environment, speed and the right legal step are therefore decisive.

In information technology matters the firm places the technical facts on a sound legal footing. The aim is not only to bring an action once a violation has occurred, but to reduce risk in advance by ensuring that websites, e-commerce operations and data processing activities are set up lawfully from the outset.

Points to Note

What matters
in practice.

The points that most affect the outcome in this area, and are most often overlooked.

The volatility of digital evidence

Screenshots, messages and log records can easily be deleted or altered. Timely and proper identification of the evidence is frequently the only foundation of the case.

Speed of application

Acting quickly in content removal and access blocking allows a violation to be stopped before it spreads. Delay often renders the harm impossible to remedy.

Where the technical meets the legal

A dispute cannot be characterised in law until its technical dimension is properly understood. Steering the expert examination correctly determines the outcome.
