Trade Secrets / Plaintiff

---

Plaintiff’s counsel engaged members of the GDR team to investigate the circumstances surrounding the departure of a key employee of an American defense contractor and heavy equipment manufacturer to a foreign competitor. 

As a result of the ensuing computer forensic investigation, an emergency TRO was granted against the defendant. Subsequent investigation, analysis and courtroom expert testimony  proved willful destruction of electronic data by the defendant and the theft of thousands of mission critical computer files from the employer.  Plaintiff prevailed in court on all claims.
