Paris Smith LLP has just had published the third edition of Drafting and Negotiating IT Contracts co-authored with Paul Klinger by partner Rachel Burnett, head of the IT/IP team. 

Currently the leading work in this area, it is designed to assist professionals working in the IT industry by providing a perspective on IT contracts that is practical rather than academic.

The authors draw on their substantial experience in the industry to discuss contracts from the perspective of each party involved in the negotiations. For those who wish to understand the wider legal context, Drafting and Negotiating IT Contracts also examines the legislation and case law underpinning IT contracts.

The major distinguishing characteristic of Drafting and Negotiating IT Contracts is its in-depth focus on contract negotiation and a detailed consideration of the negotiability of contract clauses in practice. The IT industry continues to be innovative in developing new models for business transactions and relationships, and this book promises to keep readers fully up-to-date.

Burnett’s experience has been gained as a solicitor. She also works with the undergraduate law programme at the Open University, and before her legal career, she was an IT professional. She is author of a number of publications on IT law.
