Jones Waldo’s litigation department includes a number of trial attorneys with strong backgrounds in intellectual property litigation, particularly in the areas of trademark, copyright infringement, unfair competition, and related disputes. We have represented parties in a number of cases arising out of disputes over the ownership of new technology, which included claims of breach of employment, confidentiality provisions, non-competition clauses, and trade secret theft. Increasingly, commercial disputes involving intellectual property involve a broad range of causes of action based upon federal and state statutes, contracts, and common law claims. Our expertise in employment and commercial litigation, as well as tort claims, adds to our ability to offer clients superior service in intellectual property disputes.
