AI & Technology Disputes

Technology disputes rarely fit neatly into traditional contract categories. A failed system implementation, a data set used beyond its licence, or a model trained on material someone else owns — each raises questions Vietnamese law is still developing answers to.

Wise Counsel advises technology providers, enterprise customers and investors on disputes involving software, data, artificial intelligence and digital platforms, both in litigation and arbitration.

What we help with

• Failed or delayed software and system implementation projects
• Disputes over software licensing scope, maintenance and support obligations
• Ownership and licensing disputes over data sets and training data
• Disputes over ownership of AI-generated output and derivative works
• Service level and availability claims against cloud and SaaS providers
• Data breach and cybersecurity incident liability between contracting parties
• Disputes over platform terms, account suspension and algorithmic decisions
• Source code escrow, exit and transition disputes on termination
• Representation before Vietnamese courts and arbitral tribunals in technology disputes

These disputes turn on technical facts as much as legal ones. We work with independent technical experts from the outset so that the case is built on evidence a tribunal can follow.
