By: Michael J. Cavaretta

cavaretta2Often, in transactions between customers and vendors, each party has its own “boilerplate” terms and conditions that it wants to use, which of course are often quite different than the other party’s terms – a scenario referred to as “the battle of the forms”. So how does one know which terms govern the transaction? This presentation helps to sort it out.

  • Is software a service or good?
  • Is a software license a sale of software?
  • Electronic agreements
  • Strategies
