Trade secret disputes are becoming more prevalent due to increasing employee mobility, advanced technologies that enable misappropriation, and extensive reliance on global partners and international supply chains.

Our internationally recognized experts have given oral and written expert evidence in trade secret matters before US federal and state courts and multiple international arbitration forums.
