The basic concept of electronic commerce is conducting business transactions and the supply of goods and services over electronic communication networks including the internet.
The expansive growth of E-commerce and its wide implication on future activities make appropriate legal advice inevitable for anyone that deals with this media routinely.
Many of the technology driven developments that have been launched into the marketplace will require legal advice that may cross over into related areas of technology. Such areas that clients may require legal advice on:
- Information on technology
- Internet
- E-commerce
- Telecoms
- Multimedia
- Media
- Entertainment law
