Michal MagnusekCEO
What was the most challenging part of this legal project for you personally?
„The biggest barrier is the conservative approach of the management companies. Leaving "paper work" is almost unimaginable for most people managing apartment or condominium communities. The narrative that paper won't let go is ever-present. What we are very pleased about, however, is the positive attitude of residents and modern management companies who are already reaping the rewards in the form of lower costs and efficient communication through our app.“
What is key in evaluating the success of a law firm's work?
„It's clearly the ability to understand the tech client's requirements and language and being familiar with the legal landscape. I wouldn't just frame these requirements in the areas of law and law firms. It applies generally. Collaborations are interesting to me when I have the opportunity to work with people who are experts in their field.“
What made the cooperation with MATHISON special for you and how do you rate it?
„The cooperation was specific in particular because MATHISON is a law firm with an interesting network of smart people who are a pleasure to work with. In any collaboration there is a necessary degree of empathy resulting from the different situations the product can get into. It is this empathy and understanding of priorities that is another aspect of collaboration that I greatly appreciate.“
We help young talents improving their future world through robotics
FIRST LEGO League is the world's largest program bringing children to robotics, coding and STEM fields. Under the guidance of coaches, young developers solve real-world problems (waste recycling, water etc.) using a robot they designed, built and programmed themselves.
As one of the main partners of the competition in Slovakia, we help the project with the complete legal services.
Ondrej MackoProgram Director
What is the most challenging part of legal projects for you personally?
„The complexity, the combination of many factors and the lack of experience in the legal field are the biggest challenges for our association. Our goal is to convey our enthusiasm for science and technology to as many children and students as possible, and we often run into legal obstacles that could slow down our efforts without professional help.“
What is key in evaluating the success of a law firm's work?
„For us, the key indicator is the usability of the solution, which is mainly dependent on its simplicity and applicability to the target group, which is often the entire FIRST LEGO League community in Slovakia.“
What made the cooperation with MATHISON specific for you and how do you rate it?
„The cooperation with MATHISON not only saves us time and resources, but also brings new possibilities and perspectives on legal issues. The open approach, fast and flexible communication as well as the high quality of the projects make this cooperation an important and indispensable part of our business. Thanks to this cooperation, we can more effectively help to educate and disseminate science and technology.“
DECENT: Advanced Blockchain Ecosystem
For a major Swiss-Slovak blockchain platform we worked on a project for a distribution platform for online mobile games for the so-called unbanked market.
We prepared the Distribution Contracts for the foreign market and general terms and conditions for the online distribution platform, taking into account the blockchain legal specifications and the cryptocurrencies used by the platform (world's TOP 10 ICOs in 2016).

Michal Magnusek, Product Owner
What was the most challenging part of this legal project for you personally?
„The most challenging part of the project is clearly explaining its potential to the general public. From my perspective, blockchain technology is expanding in two communities. The first is the tech-savvy cyberpunk community that understands the potential of blockchain. The second community is the mainstream, which is harder to tap into for knowledge about the potential uses of blockchain and encounters mistrust about the novelty of the technology.“

Chat bot with artificial intelligence
We represent a leading Czech-Slovak development company developing a communication chat-bot using artificial intelligence.
We have prepared Employment Contracts and Licensing Agreements for programmers developing the software. During the project, we placed emphasis on protecting the client's intellectual property rights, copyright and confidentiality obligations of employees and other workers.

Jana CilliCEO and Sales Director
What was the most challenging part of this legal project?
„Chatbot projects fall into the typical agile category when it comes to software development. The customer is directly involved in the development and has the opportunity to test the intermediate product and then re-evaluate their requirements over time. At the same time, they learn to use the new technology and set up processes for working with it. At the same time, we, on the development side, gradually get into the customer's business and learn what is obvious for them in their business.
From a legal perspective, the biggest challenge is to legally incorporate the high degree of freedom and flexibility that is standard in agile projects into a legal document. In terms of our projects where we implement extremely new and sophisticated technologies, we clearly find it most challenging to manage client expectations throughout the entire lifecycle. It's about trust and partnership.“
What is key in evaluating the success of a law firm's work?
„The complexity of the vendor-client relationship and processes is a challenging thing. A law firm has to be versed in both our business, which is very young, in modern SW management methodologies and also understand the relationship with our client and, practically, the unwritten values of both firms. To reconcile all this with the legislation? Hats off!“
What made the cooperation with MATHISON special for you and how do you rate it?
„It's been great to be able to cover all types of contracts, from employees to specific project contracts. This way we don't have to explain our business over and over to more people. Great!“
