Knowledgeable Attorneys Experienced in Trade Secret Litigation
For many California businesses, their most valuable assets are not something they can hold in their hands. Their trade secrets and proprietary information provide them an advantage over their competitors. The importance of keeping their confidential information out of the hands of competitors cannot be overstated.
When that secrecy is violated, a business's existence is put at risk. Conversely, the mere allegation of trade secret violations or security breaches can put a business's reputation or a high-level professional's career at risk. At the law office of Cooke Kobrick & Wu LLP, we are dedicated to protecting the rights, reputation and coveted trade secrets of all clients who come to our firm.
Our trade secret litigation practice is encompassing, providing you with the experience, knowledge and dedication you need. Contact our firm at 650-917-8045. We have three offices in the Silicon Valley — two San Jose-area offices and a San Francisco-area office.
Unique and Comprehensive Experience in Trade Secret Litigation
At Cooke Kobrick & Wu LLP, we cover three key and overlapping areas in trade secret litigation. Those areas are:
- Trade secret law
- Information security / data protection
- E-Discovery and digital evidence
While many of our peers and competitors know trade secret law, they are behind the curve because they do not have knowledge of information security or electronic discovery skills needed to handle a trade secret case in today's information age.
Prevention and Protection of What Your Business Holds Most Valuable
As information systems grow in sophistication, smart phones and portable devices multiply, and we start moving toward widespread use of cloud computing, those interested in stealing that information strive to keep up with the latest in technology. Our objective for business clients goes beyond litigation. We want to prevent trade secret and data breaches from occurring in the first place. Systems that house source code and other highly sensitive confidential information should maintain the highest level of security. Employees responsible for this proprietary data should focus on confidentiality and strong information security controls.
A Focus on Innovation in New Areas of Trade Secret Litigation
Gathering electronic evidence to pursue a claim or defend a client is a field still in its infancy. Staying on the cutting edge is crucial as this aspect of business law matures. Discovery is a vital part of any trade secret misappropriation claim or data protection investigation. Failing to manage digital evidence and respond appropriately to ediscovery requests can mean big sanctions and the difference between winning and losing a case.
Attorneys staffed by medium and large corporations often find it difficult to stay consistently abreast of the latest in technological developments. If you require assistance with any matter relating to trade secrets or trade secret litigation, Cooke Kobrick & Wu LLP attorneys are singularly well equipped to provide it.
