Communications Services for Businesses and MTEs

Keller and Heckman represents large businesses and other enterprise customers, along with developers, owners, or service providers in securing or providing the telecommunications, broadband, and other important communications services they need.
  
We represent large businesses and other enterprise customers in negotiating Wide Area Network agreements with the major domestic and international carriers, and wireless agreements with domestic mobile service providers, including wireless requirements associated with M2M/IoT requirements and in-building Distributed Antenna System (DAS) arrangements.

To acquire the voice, data, and Internet access services that our business enterprise clients need, we work with in-house counsel, enterprise procurement groups, and leading telecom consultants to secure not only the communications services, but also the related management and network security services procurements. We advise on the legal elements of RFPs, implementing the agreed-upon business terms, and revising the carriers’ one-sided agreements to better reflect and balance the business and legal risks.

With respect to multi-dwelling unit (MDU) developers and owners, we negotiate and (re)draft access agreements, marketing agreements, and bulk services agreements with the major cable and broadband services providers, principally in urban areas throughout the United States.
