Filing For Protection Of Your Trade Secrets
Different types of intellectual property (IP) have different sorts of protections, and the requirements and expectations of privacy and use are different. Trade secrets do not require filing for formal protection with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), but there are legal consequences for people who misuse or appropriate trade secrets. Our firm can help you file all necessary legal protection of your trade secrets and draft non-disclosure agreements with your employees and vendors to protect any trade secrets they may encounter.
We review your IP safeguards and recommend the right steps to preserve the integrity of your trade secrets. Should you wish to license, lease, or sell your trade secrets, we can draw up contractual protections to allow only the use you want, with severe legal penalties for misuse and violating your contractual agreement with the other party. We have your business’s financial and brand interests at heart and help you protect everything you’ve worked so hard for.
Legal Action For Trade Secrets Violations
Even with the best contracts and other legal protections, there is still a chance that a competitor, employee, or other party may be tempted to misuse or appropriate your trade secrets. In these cases, our attorneys take the strongest legal action possible, including filing a civil suit for all damages you and your company suffered and taking action against the offending party for breach of contract if a contract breach was involved. We’re committed to helping your business succeed, and preserving your trade secrets is vital to this end.
