Unfair Competition, Noncompete, and Trade Secrets

Kelly Hart attorneys help clients safeguard their confidential, proprietary, and trade secret information. They also enforce and defend noncompetition agreements and other trade restraints, and protect clients from unfair competition. When a company’s trade secrets or proprietary information are threatened with misappropriation and misuse, our lawyers respond swiftly to prevent irreparable harm. This often involves seeking immediate court relief, such as temporary restraining orders, expedited discovery, and preservation of electronically stored information, including analysis by forensic experts—all while maintaining the option to pursue damages later. Our attorneys have a strong track record of protecting clients’ trade secrets and proprietary data, and of recovering damages from unfair competitors who misappropriate these valuable resources.
