We are nationally recognized in covenant not to compete and trade secret litigation. Numerous energy, technology, and financial companies retain us regularly to litigate these disputes, and we have tried many of these types of cases. We also regularly counsel and advise companies and executives on covenant not to compete and trade secret issues. Recognized by their peers as experts in this area, our lawyers are frequently called upon to give presentations at CLE seminars on these topics.
Our trial results in this area have been featured in such publications as the National Law Journal, the Texas Lawyer, the Wall Street Journal, and the Houston Business Journal. For example, we were recently engaged to defend a high-profile trade secret lawsuit in Houston on the eve of trial. The plaintiff, a publicly-traded oilfield services company, sought over thirty million dollars in damages from our client. At the conclusion of the six-week trial, the jury delivered a unanimous defense verdict.
