Investigating and Pursuing Trade Secret Claims
Under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, companies and individuals have a right to protect their trade secrets in court. Our attorneys have helped many companies through the process of trade secret litigation.
If one of your employees has been poached by a competitor, and you are concerned that he or she is going to engage in unfair competition by sharing your proprietary information — including patents and copyrights — with that competitor, we can help you assess and investigate the situation in order to determine whether it is an appropriate matter for litigation or other legal action.
When you need to protect what is crucially important to your business — the information that you have worked hard to develop and collect — don't hesitate to contact us to get efficient, effective trade secret counsel from experienced attorneys.
Exploring All Enforcement OptionsIn addition to the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, there are a number of other statutes and contractual arrangements that can be used to protect your trade secrets. If you are able to obtain patents on your secrets, you can bring a patent infringement action against someone who you believe is violating the patent. If you have non-competition and/or confidentiality agreements with your employees, you may bring an action to enforce those agreements. Our trade secret lawyers will acquaint you with all of your options for protecting your important trade secrets. |
