Buchalter Secures Verdict in Multi-Million Dollar Trade Secrets Case

A team of Jonathon Talcott, Samuel Sazer, and Stephen Best successfully defeated a hard-fought motion to dismiss brought against their client in a multi-million dollar trade secrets and breach of contract case pending in Arizona federal court. This victory allowed the client’s lawsuit to continue against its former employee, who is alleged to have acted in conspiracy with a major university’s former NIL collective to misappropriate trade secrets and usurp opportunities in the collegiate NIL-themed beverages market.
