  Trade Secrets & Employee Mobility Claims:
Strategies for Protection & Litigation

February 23, 2012

 

Trade secret litigation and employee mobility cases are the hotest areas of intellectual property and employment litigation. Employees are getting laid off in record numbers, more and more senior level executives and employees are leaving one company to start or join a direct competitor. This program will provide participants with advice on how to protect company trade secrets, guard against employee raids, recruit from competitors without getting sued, and deal with the important issues that arise when employees leave to compete with their former employers. This program provides perspective from both the plaintiff and defense sides.
