The firm successfully represented Circle S Industries, one of the world’s largest producers of interconnection bonding wire used in computer chips, in one of the first cases litigated under the Alabama Trade Secrets Act (Circle S Industries v. Berryman). After a key group of employees left Circle S to start a competing business, we secured a preliminary injunction and secured noncompetition agreements with the former employees. Several years later a group of these defendants violated the agreement, and we assisted Circle S in bringing suit, alleging breach of the settlement agreement and trade secret misappropriation. The case settled while in arbitration.
