Are You Putting Your Business At Risk With Lawyers Who Don’t Understand Technology Contracts?

Discover The Legal “Blind Spots” That “You” As The Business Leader Of Your Organisation Must Know!

book-cover-v14-1-.png

You will discover in this ground-breaking book for CEOs and Business Leaders:

  • The “ins and outs” of who actually owns your IP, you or your customers who are paying for it (this one will surprise you!)
  • Do confidentiality agreements have any “teeth” in them? Can they actually be enforced and pursued? (don’t believe what you hear about this from others)
  • The truth about Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and the hidden “legal loops” inside them (this alone could save you millions of dollars!)
  • ​Why general lawyers can be your worst liability when it comes to negotiating technology contracts (this one will shock you!)

Don’t Jeopardise Your Business With Bad Legal Advice!

If you are a successful senior technology executive, a lot of your time and attention is spent dealing with draft contracts and negotiating a growing stack of commercial contracts. You may think you already have the necessary legal expertise on hand, but you’ll be surprised to learn that many executives are incredibly unprepared when it comes to legal matters.

The simple truth is that many CEOs are great at managing day-to-day operations, and yet the cookiecutter legal advice they often rely on can’t spot the potholes and pitfalls that can hide in a technology contract. Without a contract expert on hand, you could be jeopardising the success and profitability of your business.


In this breakthrough book, you’ll discover the many truths about technology contracts that could save your company from major law suits:

  • The hidden risks that can “bite you in the bum” of starting a project with a partner before negotiate a clear agreement
  • The truth about handshake deals and how they compare to legal documents (are they defensible in court? Find out in this revealing book!)
  • Why using open source code in your tech products could put you at serious risk (don’t follow the crowd on this one!)
  • ​Why your privacy policy may have as many “holes” in it as swiss cheese! (plug up those loop holes as fast as you can)

A Personal Note From Alan…

If I were to take a peek at your inbox right now, I wouldn’t be surprised to see communications from outside vendors and your fellow executives on negotiating commercial contracts, along with draft copies of those contracts. Sometimes those contracts are “standard” and sometimes they may have a huge amount of leverage you could use to create significant value for your organization.

Many of the deals that come across my desk have gaping holes inside them that the executive didn’t see on his or her own. Sometimes a second opinion from outside the company can make all the difference between exposing your Intellectual Property to significant risk and ensuring its security for the long term.

This book exposes some of the myths or what I call “blind spots” that many tech executives don’t always consider when negotiating their deals – things that put them in a less-than-ideal position. I’ve seen many deals go bad, with companies struggling to put themselves back together when all they really needed in the first place was some better advice from an experienced tech lawyer. I

decided to write this book to help the industry that has been so good to me over the years… and since I’m a technology guy myself, the more good I can do for the industry, the better for everyone.
