Austin Trade Secrets Litigation Attorney

Many companies operate under the premise that what they have to offer cannot be provided by anyone else. Basically, everyone has their version of a “secret recipe,” but only specific employees are allowed know the ingredients. However, sometimes one of these employees may leave the company. For the most part, confidentiality agreements and common decency will keep a former employee from violating the trust that made them valuable in the first place.

Unfortunately, though, there are instances when an employee uses the confidential knowledge they gained at one company to help a different business. This is a complex area of the law because it is typically an idea that is stolen rather than a physical object. If your business has experienced a trade secrets violation, the experienced Austin trade secrets litigation lawyers of Slater, Kennon & Pugh Ltd.LLP may be able to help. To discuss your case, contact our offices today at 512-472-2431.

Even if litigation is merely pending, you have the option to pursue legal measures such as:

  • Temporary restraining orders
