Trade Secrets Litigation in 2019 and Beyond: Strategic Approach in Pursuing Misappropriation Cases
Live Webcast Date:
Wednesday, May 08, 2019 from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm (ET)
Online CLE Trade Secrets
Join us for this Knowledge Group Online CLE Trade Secrets Webinar. Trade secret litigation in the Federal Courts has grown rigorously high since the developments in trade secret litigation analytics. With the continuously evolving trends and developments surrounding this area of law, the risk of trade secret misappropriation also increases. However, under the Defend Trade Secret Act (DTSA), recovering misappropriated trade secrets from former employees through ex parte seizure orders could be a great help in addressing such a situation.
In order to prevent misappropriated trade secrets dissemination and as well as to provide a strategic approach in pursuing misappropriation cases, companies should be up to date of the recent trends and developments in trade secret litigation.
Listen as a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group provide the audience with the latest and significant issues in trade secret litigation. Speakers, among other things, will provide a practical guide and strategic approach in dealing with misappropriated trade secrets cases.
Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
- Trade Secret Litigation in the 2019 Landscape
