This teleconference will provide an overview and general principles of the law and legal theories related to protecting competitive business interests and confidential business information - one of the fastest growing areas of intellectual property law outside of traditional patent, copyright and trademark concerns. You'll learn about covenants not to compete, nonsolicitation agreements, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements, trade secret protection and misappropriation, the Uniform Trade Secrets Act and state trade secret statutes, the doctrine of inevitable disclosure, reverse engineering, developing a trade secret protection program, assignments of inventions by current employees, and associated state law claims often involved in trade secret and noncompetition lawsuits. This teleconference will explore litigation and client counseling strategies, with practical application of legal theories to typical situations confronted in this rapidly developing area of law.
