Trade Secret, Fiduciary Duty & Unfair Competition

What this is.

Trade secret misappropriation, breach of fiduciary duty, and unfair competition claims arise in some of the most high-stakes business disputes — when a departing employee takes confidential information, when a partner diverts business opportunities, when a competitor uses methods that cross the line. These cases move fast, require preliminary injunction strategy, and demand a lawyer who understands both the legal mechanics and the business reality behind the dispute.

Kevin has handled these cases on both sides — representing companies pursuing departing employees and executives who took proprietary information, and representing individuals accused of conduct they deny. He has also managed trade secret compliance programs from the inside of a company, which gives him a different perspective on where the real exposure lies.

Who Kevin represents.

• Companies pursuing former employees or partners for misappropriation
• Individuals defending against trade secret or breach of duty claims
• Companies protecting customer relationships and proprietary processes
• Officers and executives facing claims of conflicted loyalty
