No one can afford any illusions—the COVID-19 pandemic is the game-changer of our lifetime. Across all industries, the only thing that anyone knows for certain is that “business as usual” is a thing of the past. As the aging models that have dominated the distribution of legal services for decades come under increasing scrutiny, the legal industry is facing a degree of turmoil that it hasn’t seen for generations. With our combined decades as partners in the largest and most prominent law firms in the country, Beeman & Muchmore believe that the legal industry is best served by embracing change rather than resisting it. Although the pandemic has brought an immediacy to grappling with the future, the transformation in our industry has been underway for some time.
It is no secret—businesses of all types and sizes are reimagining their legal services, handling an increasing range of needs in-house and—for the balance—seeking highly specialized counseling that can be delivered free of the inefficiencies that burden traditional full-service law firms. We believe these trends will usher our profession to new heights of accountability and effectiveness. Accordingly, we are proud to launch Beeman & Muchmore, LLP —a new law firm specially designed to meet the emerging needs and demands of the new world.
We have represented companies of all sizes, in all industries, handling all types of matters that go to the heart of essential business operations.
We have a turn-key proficiency handling software licensing and auditing disputes with Oracle Corporation and other prominent global software vendors.
Our experience in handling recurring licensing and auditing disputes has uniquely positioned us to extricate companies from their dispute while avoiding costly litigation.
Our unique practice model allows us to deliver our highly-specialized counseling free from an inefficient and costly infrastructure.

We are delighted to share news that on January 20th, 2021, Law360 published a consolidation of several of our blog posts in an article titled “What the Oracle-TikTok Saga Means for Oracle Licensees”. We have admired the efforts of Law360 for decades and are honored to, once again, have our efforts associated with that institutional publication.
In the time since we published Part III, Trump lost the Presidential election and a new administration will occupy the White House later this week. So, how does it appear the Trump/Oracle/TikTok saga will end?
As we say farewell to 2020, we would like to take the opportunity to thank you for your continued support of Beeman & Muchmore. To say that 2020 has been an interesting year would be an understatement, as abrupt changes swept across the globe in nearly every profession and walk of life.
