Major arbitration over theft of software code and confidential information

Law and Forensics provides digital forensics and discovery expert witness services in a complex arbitration involving a major technology company with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake.

An arbitrator determined that a competitor misused confidential information from a technology company and awarded Law and Forensics’ client nine figures. The case underscored the importance of protecting proprietary data in the digital age.

Law and Forensics’ experts, working with a partner at an Amlaw 100 firm, provided critical digital forensic and discovery expert witness services and delivered a comprehensive report detailing the findings.

The dispute involved allegations that the competitor unlawfully accessed and used the technology company’s proprietary source code. This act of misappropriation allowed the competitor to develop similar software solutions, creating an unfair advantage in the market.

The case highlighted the increasing role of digital forensics in legal battles. As companies rely more on digital assets, the ability to trace and prove unauthorized access is becoming increasingly important.

Law and Forensics continues to deliver specialized services in this area. Their expert analysis revealed hidden actions and supported legal claims. “We remain committed to helping our clients protect their digital interests,” a Law and Forensics representative said.
