Theft of Trade Secrets Litigation Attorneys

Representing clients in Texas and throughout the United States

Trade secret: Commercial or technical information used in a business to gain a competitive advantage.

Trade secrets can vary in scope and include a variety of formats that help businesses strategically gain customers.  Trade secrets may include customer lists, client lists, patterns, plans, compilations, program devices, formulas, designs, prototypes, methods, techniques, processes, procedures, programs, codes and other technology that derives independent economic value from being kept private.

Regardless of how the trade secret information is stored, whether graphically, photographically, electronically or otherwise, theft of the information is both illegal and commonplace.  While non-disclosure contracts require employees to keep trade secrets confidential, it is not uncommon for a terminated employee to hand over trade secrets to a competitor to the detriment of his or her former employer.

In cases involving theft of trade secrets or technology, time is of the essence. If you have a case involving theft of a trade secret or technology, you need quick thinking and a sound legal strategy. Contact The Coffman Law Firm today for your initial consultation.
