Overview (Program Summary)
A program hosted by:
ACC Western PennsylvaniaJones Day and the Association of Corporate Counsel - Western Pennsylvania Chapter invite you to join us for a timely and informative panel discussion at Jones Day's Pittsburgh Office.
Trade secret litigation and claims brought under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) are on the rise, with several recent $100 million-plus verdicts being reported. This session will provide an update on key developments in federal DTSA cases and will focus on how in-house counsel can prepare now – before a dispute arises – to protect their companies' trade secrets, mitigate risks regarding trade secret disclosure and, if necessary, litigate trade secret disputes.
The panelists will provide an overview of DTSA and the Pennsylvania Uniform Trade Secrets Act, identify concrete steps company counsel can take to best position their clients for litigation success, and explain what in-house counsel can expect in these fast-moving cases.
