Los Angeles Internet and Commercial Law Attorney

Doing business on the Internet presents both an opportunity and a risk. Issues such as pay-per-click fraud, domain name highjacking, breaches of contract, copyright infringement, defamation and trademark infringement can result in the loss of what you have worked so hard to gain.

I'm Erik Syverson, an attorney in Los Angeles who helps small-to-medium-sized businesses and individuals protect their rights and seize opportunities in the landscape of e-commerce and the Internet. I have devoted my practice to the intersection of internet law, business and intellectual property.  As a result, I am one of America's leading internet law attorneys and handle internet related legal issues every single day.  Odds are that I have personal experience related to your particular internet legal issue as I maintain clients around the world in a number of varied industries.  I speak the unique language of e-commerce and the internet so that I am readily familiar with topics such as pay per click advertising, ppc trademark infringement, cybersquatting, hacking, phishing, sms marketing and communication, spam, data encryption, virtual online communities, IP addresses, DMCA takedown notices, user generated content, social networking law and business, web 3.0 collaboration and marketing.  Because of my vast internet law experience, I have recently been named counsel for a number of national class actions against technology companies including Google. 

My internet law firm sets itself apart from many traditional law firms in the sense that I am fully conversant in the emerging technologies of the internet and I am able to quickly attack the problems facing my clients.  My ability to act quickly, decisively and efficiently often saves my clients thousands of dollars that would otherwise go toward educating lawyers on the particular technology involved in a given matter.  I am also committed to client service - this means that you, the client, are my top priority and I am personally accountable to you.  As my client, you will always be able to reach me by phone, text message and/or email and receive a response within 48 hours. 

CNN looks to Erik Syverson as an internet law expert

My practice focuses upon three main areas of law including:

  • Intellectual property issues such as management and litigation of Internet property portfolios, copyrights, trademarks and trademark dilution, proprietary software code and design, protection of trade secrets, rights of publicity, and works-made-for-hire issues.
  • Internet law, including e-commerce, domain name disputes, spam and commercial e-mail, Web site regulation, Web development deals, domain name sales, domain name leases, pay-per-click advertising and click fraud, Web site terms of use and privacy policies, affiliate marketing, social networking, virtual worlds, defamation and reputation management.
  • Business law, which spans starting a new business, contractual disputes, business deal negotiations and drafting, risk assessment, employee issues, trade secrets, federal and state regulatory compliance, entity formation, collections, defense of attorney general and federal trade commission lawsuits.

Unfortunately, not all legal matters can be resolved without litigation. I am one of the few lawyers in America practicing in the areas of Internet law and e-commerce who can see your case all the way through to trial. If you are faced with civil litigation, you will need an experienced and savvy trial lawyer to protect your rights and explain the technology of the internet to a judge and/or jury. I can guide your case through the legal system from the filing of a complaint through discovery and trial.  I employ the latest litigation tactics and strategies in an effort to maximize potential recovery while minimizing cost and risk.  Or, if you are a defendant in a lawsuit, I am able to use a variety of strategies in an attempt to get the lawsuit against you dismissed prior to trial.  We have represented dozens of individuals and businesses sued for copyright infringement, trademark infringement and unfair internet business practices.  I am involved in litigation around the country so that no matter which state you are located, I will most likely be able to represent you directly or with the assistance of local counsel.

I have been involved in leading-edge Internet litigation, such as class action lawsuits on pay-per-click fraud and unfair internet business practices. Because of my wealth of experience as a leading trial lawyer and internet law attorney, clients hire me to represent them in lawsuits against even the largest multi-national companies.  Whether you are involved in a relatively small dispute or a multi-party lawsuit involving large corporate interests, I can provide you with experienced, aggressive and efficient legal counsel.
