Trade Secrets, Non-Compete & Non-Soliciation Litigation in Oklahoma
Intellectual property comes in two major forms: public properties, such as patents, trademarks and copyrights, and proprietary properties, such as trade secrets and other types of information which are kept inside your business and not shared with the world outside. When your trade secrets are threatened, or when you become involved in litigation concerning non-compete or non-solicitation agreements, you need specialized legal help.
Tomlinson, Rust, McKinstry & Grable is there to provide it. From the beginning of your case, we:
- consult with you to determine the best strategy for protecting your interests
- carefully analyze the various legal claims involved
- craft a customized strategy to successfully defend or prosecute cases involving trade secrets, non-compete and non-solicitation claims
A dedicated discovery staff assigned to the case handles all aspects of preparation, from retaining expert testimony to the careful and thorough preparation of client witnesses prior to being deposed. We also aggressively explore the opportunities for settlement should they arise.
Retaining key electronic data is another key consideration. At the outset, we identify and obtain all possible sources of electronic data from our client and the opposing party and construct a plan to economically and efficiently pursue the most pertinent electronic data and electronic discovery. By winnowing this data down to only the essential documents, we avoid the time-wasting and expensive discovery-phase “document dump” that can occur as a result of broad discovery requests and drive up litigation costs.
When authoring your non-compete and non-solicitation agreements, we will develop a strategy that suits your individual needs and aggressively protects your interests. Tomlinson, Rust, McKinstry & Grable attorneys work to craft agreements that are reasonable in scope, territory and duration, in compliance with Oklahoma law.
