Moses Singer attorneys obtained a favorable decision on summary judgment, dismissing the plaintiff’s central claim of misappropriation of trade secrets against our client, in a decision issued by the United State District Court for the District of Minnesota.  Specifically, the District Court determined the evidence established that the plaintiff “failed to take measures to prevent the [trade] secret[s] from becoming available to persons other than those selected by the owner to have access.” The Moses Singer team included Avi Skoff, Mark Parry, Kimberly Klein, Valeria Castanaro Gallotta, Daniel Hoffman and Parker Murray.

Trade secrets are one of a company’s most important assets. As highlighted in this decision, to receive protection under the law, it is imperative for your company to take appropriate measures to ensure the confidentiality and secrecy of its trade secrets and proprietary information. Moses Singer’s trade secret and business tort attorneys can create and help implement policies and procedures designed to establish the reasonable measures that are needed to protect trade secrets and proprietary information.
