Fall, III, an attorney with Fox Rothschild LLP specializing in intellectual property, computer law, cyberlaw and Internet-related matters, is available for comment on the MGM v. Grokster case ruled on today by the Supreme Court of the United States. The Supreme Court ruled that Internet file-sharing services can be held responsible if the service intends for users to use the software primarily to illegally swap songs and movies. This unanimous decision will send the case back to lower court.

He has considerable experience in various traditional intellectual property matters, including patent, copyright and trademark licensing, computer software licensing, computer system acquisitions, trademark and copyright applications and counseling clients in various intellectual property aspects of their businesses. He works with clients to assist them in exploiting new and evolving technologies and business models, in such matters as website development and hosting, online purchasing, e-commerce and e-business and a myriad of other cyberlaw legal issues that arise over time.

Mr. Fall has also been involved in the venture capital area, having served on the Board of Directors of the Entrepreneurs' Forum of Philadelphia (1987- 90), and was published in the Third Edition of the Layman's Guide to the Legal Aspects of Venture Capital.
