Representative Experience
  • Obtained dismissal with prejudice of federal Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) claims against our client, in a $200 million action pending in US District Court for the Southern District of New York. Plaintiff claimed defendants, including our clients, misappropriated trade secrets and violated alleged fiduciary duties in connection with the establishment of a stock index identifying opportunities to invest in publicly traded shares based upon the brand value of the issuing companies. The court held that the pleading did not state a federal claim under the DTSA, denied the plaintiff leave to re-plead, and dismissed all related state law claims.

  • Secured the dismissal of a patent infringement case commenced against a global manufacturer of telecommunication products without having to make a monetary payment.
