We often assist clients and their counsel when communications and technology issues arise in the course of broader litigation. We assist in state and federal court proceedings, and in a variety of mediation and arbitration settings, on issues including:
-
The proper interpretation of contract and/or tariff provisions;
-
Application of the filed tariff doctrine (which once foreclosed claims under contract and tort law);
-
Cost, reliability, and service levels established for custom networks and network services;
-
Limits on carrier liability;
-
Billing disputes;
-
Discrimination among customers in rates, terms, and conditions; and
-
The regulatory fees and surcharges applicable to negotiated service contracts.
