We pride ourselves on our strategic approach, deep understanding of the law, focus on our clients’ goals and objectives, and our strong national litigation capabilities and trial experience.
Among our successes, we have:
- Developed novel legal theory under the Lanham Act and RICO in an action filed in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against two former employees resulting in an injunction and seven-figure settlement.
- Pursued an action in New Jersey Superior Court against 13 former employees. Through aggressive discovery, we achieved a consent order resulting in a complete bar from employment with the new employer.
- Defeated applications for temporary restraining orders (TROs) filed against a global financial services firm in several superior court actions in California that alleged violation of trade secrets and employee-raiding resulting from alleged solicitation of competitors' brokers.
- Favorably resolved a complaint and motion for preliminary injunction as part of a larger business transaction involving a collaborative effort between our litigation team and lawyers from our Corporate and Securities and Corporate Tax groups.
- Enforced the exclusivity provisions of the employment agreement for the nation’s largest, publicly traded Hispanic-controlled media and entertainment company, through arbitration of a challenge by a morning drive-time star disc jockey.
- Resolved an action brought against a former employee of our client, an international staffing company, and her new employer alleging that the former employee violated the non-competition, customer non-solicitation and other provisions of her restrictive covenant agreement with our client. The resolution included the new employer making a sizable payment to our client and agreeing to a future restrictive covenant applicable to the corporate defendant’s entire regional office.
- Brought an action seeking injunctive relief and damages against the new employer and several former officers and managers concerning the raiding of an entire Chicago office. The suit settled when the competitor closed the Chicago operation after the suit was filed.
