The intellectual property of a business typically constitutes one of its most valuable assets. Because companies invest enormous sums in developing unique business practices and systems, theft of this valuable information can have a devastating financial impact. Mr. Kellum represents businesses victimized by former employees, competitors and others who pilfer their systems for success.
Trade secrets generally refer to information that is not widely known by the public which provides a financial advantage to its owners.
