On October 5, 2022, Tom Wallerstein published “Trade Secrets Litigation Surges,” in the Daily Journal. Here is an excerpt:

This year has seen not only big cases and big verdicts, but also numerous decisions that continue to guide and shape the law since the Defend Trade Secrets Act was passed in 2016. Clients have learned that protecting their trade secret intellectual property, and litigating it when necessary, is just as important as protecting their patents, copyrights and trademarks.
