Technology
Moore Law advises a significant number of clients in the Technology sector.
Tris Moore started out in legal practice in London in 1999 and gained experience advising on IT and IP and other commercial matters for a global telecommunications company. This led to work for other media companies and technology entrepreneurs on the legal issues arising in this fast-moving sector.
The speed of technological development often leaves the law playing catch-up so it is important to have lawyers on your side who are comfortable advising on the evolving nature of a fluid base of law and regulation.
