A Dispute Resolution Process in Contracts

The subject matter in technology can change so quickly that the technology laws have recently attempted to create frameworks to resolve problems rather than creating specific rules that could become obsolete. Accordingly, even the the best drafted technology contracts cannot address every possible problem that could arise. A technology attorney can help software developers, website designers, managed service providers (MSP) and others who work with software and professional services agreements to establish a framework to resolve problems.

Such clauses in contracts are often referred to as Dispute Resolution clauses. Without such a clause, if a problem arises where the parties are at an impasse or there is a clear breach, then the issue can quickly escalate to costly and time consuming litigation. Instead, the parties can develop a mutually agreed framework to resolve issues step-by-step in a productive manner.
