This course on trade secrets litigation provides real-world best practices through all key stages of bringing a trade secrets lawsuit in federal court, including critical early steps, preparing a complaint, issuing discovery, obtaining preliminary injunctive relief, and other essential issues. This year’s program is updated to address recent developments, including the post-FTC-rule noncompete landscape and notable DTSA damages decisions. 

Upon completion, attendees will be able to: 

(1) determine whether information qualifies as a protectable trade secret and assess misappropriation under the DTSA and UTSA

(2) take effective pre-litigation steps, including internal investigation and cease-and-desist strategy

(3) evaluate where, when, and against whom to bring suit and prepare a complaint that supports early injunctive relief

(4) deploy the discovery and expert strategies unique to trade secrets cases while protecting the secret during litigation

(5) identify the relief available and current trends shaping trade secrets litigation.
