In the field of telecommunications, Midglobe lawyers have developed state-of-the-art knowledge of their clients' industries and the complex technologies that support them. We represent wireless, cellular, satellite, and fiber-optic network companies, as well as telephone, videoconferencing, and television companies. As with other clients, our attorneys oversee the development, growth, management, and protection of their assets.
Midglobe advises all types of entities regarding a myriad of issues relating to computers and technology. Among many other things, members of our practice group are frequently called upon to draft, review, negotiate and advise clients regarding licensing agreements, equipment leases, maintenance and support contracts, warranty issues, web site agreements, domain name registrations, and other issues associated with existing and emerging technologies.
The firm represents clients in, and is regularly asked to consult on litigation and arbitration matters involving a broad array of hardware and software problems and disputes such as defamation, breach of contract, breach of warranty, fraud and misrepresentation, and misappropriation of domain names.
We are knowledgeable in all substantive areas of telecommunications law, and represent:
- Cellular, PCS and other wireless communications companies
- Local and long distance wireline telecommunications service providers
- Commercial satellite operators, providers of broadband and various
Internet-based services
- Telecommunications equipment manufacturers
- Broadcasters
- Traditional and Internet-based radio station operators
Midglobe also represents a wide variety of other telecommunications-related technology companies as well as entities with a need to know how the telecommunications landscape affects their non-telecommunications businesses, including large users of telecommunications services. These clients range in size from start-up companies to some of the largest companies in the world. We also represent investment banks, merchant banks, commercial banks, service providers and other telecommunications businesses in connection with private and public equity and debt financing transactions.
We provide advice on changes in laws, regulations and policies and on how those changes affect our clients’ interests. We have had repeated success in devising and implementing legislative and regulatory initiatives on behalf of our clients. We strive to identify significant issues before they arise, which allows our clients to anticipate matters that are important to their business rather than merely reacting to them.
At Midglobe, our lawyers are well versed to handle a wide range of transactional matters involving the acquisition, sale or other disposition of telecommunications businesses, and domestic and international joint ventures. Our attorneys negotiate corporate transactional and commercial contracts, perform due diligence, and prepare and prosecute FCC and other regulatory applications involving government authorizations.
