Stibbs & Co. P.C. Attorneys Success Stories
In a recent significant litigation matter, the firm represented a major global provider of equipment, technology, and services to the oil and gas industry in defending claims brought by a competitor alleging misappropriation of confidential information and trade secrets. The claims arose from the competitor’s assertion that a former employee—who had left the competitor to join the firm’s client—had improperly used or disclosed proprietary information in connection with the client’s business operations. The matter involved expedited proceedings and complex issues at the intersection of trade secret law, employee mobility, and competitive business practices. The firm obtained a directed verdict in favor of the client at the temporary injunction hearing, defeating the competitor’s attempt to restrict the client’s operations and access the client’s computer database. The firm then successfully disposed of all but one of the remaining claims and secured an award of attorney fees through a Rule 91a motion to dismiss and then negotiated a dismissal of the remaining claim and payment of the awarded attorney’s fees to the client.
