Our market‑leading trade secret litigation and trial practice handles high‑stakes disputes threatening our clients’ most valuable business assets. With one of the largest and deepest trade secrets benches in the country, we prosecute and defend matters across state and federal courts and regulatory forums, helping clients protect their critical information and keep businesses operational.

Our trade secrets practice spans the full range of business litigation, criminal disputes, and international trade. We have handled some of the most complex, high‑profile matters in the world. We have extensive experience on both sides of the equation, moving quickly to stop unlawful use of trade secrets and defending companies and individuals against unsupported or overreaching misappropriation claims.

We regularly represent clients in:

• Trade secret misappropriation actions in state and federal courts
• Employee mobility disputes, including departures involving sensitive information
• Commercial disputes implicating proprietary information
• Corporate espionage and unauthorized computer intrusions for the purpose of trade secrets theft
• Matters before regulatory forums, including the International Trade Commission
• Criminal referrals and defense related to trade secret allegations

Our lawyers know how to move decisively in court to secure injunctive relief, protect confidential information, and preserve competitive advantage. At the same time, we bring disciplined judgment to defending against trade secret claims that can disrupt operations or hinder legitimate competition. We are often hired shortly before trial to handle these complex cases where winning narratives often carry the day.

We also understand the close relationship between trade secret protection and restrictive covenants and frequently help clients navigate the varying approaches around the country.

Our 360-degree approach allows us to architect winning trade secrets strategies to ensure our clients’ vital businesses thrive.
