Holding someone accountable for trade secrets theft requires significant legal skill, few firms can match the depth of trade secrets theft experience and the legendary high settlements rate offered by A. Cohen Law Firm, P.C. Strongly rooted in the communities of Long Island, Westchester and New York.

A trade secret is any formula, pattern, device or compilation of information which is used in one’s business, and which gives him an opportunity to obtain an advantage over competitors who do not know or use it. 

The elements of trade secret theft are:

(1) that plaintiff possessed a trade secret, and

(2) that the defendants used that trade secret in breach of an agreement, confidential relationship, or duty, or as a result of discovery by improper means.

As a general matter, courts consider several factors when determining what constitutes a trade secret, including:

(1) the extent to which the information is known outside of the business

(2) the extent to which it is known by employees and others involved in the business

(3) the extent of measures taken by the business to guard the secrecy of the information

(4) the value of the information to the business and its competitors

(5) the amount of effort or money expended by the business in developing the information

(6) the ease or difficulty with which the information could be properly acquired or duplicated by others.

Business Litigation

Contracts And Agreements

Having seen, witnessed and represented clients on various causes for breach of contract, it is imperative to have a knowledgeable business lawyer be able to draft contracts and agreements such as purchase and sale agreements, marketing-agency agreements, affiliate agreements, an operating agreement, joint ventures, and partnership agreements. A well-prepared contract or agreement can save you lots of money and future litigation aggravation.

 
 

Breach Of Contract

In almost every commercial litigation dispute, there are two sides alleging completely incongruent positions.

The essential elements of a breach of contract cause of action are:

(i) the existence of a contract

(ii) the plaintiff’s (or claimant’s) performance pursuant to the contract;

(iii) the defendant’s breach of his or her contractual obligations

(iv) and damages resulting from the breach.

Generally, a party alleging a breach of contract must demonstrate the existence of a contract reflecting the terms and conditions of their purported agreement. Furthermore, a plaintiff’s allegations must identify the provisions of the contract that were breached.
