Spotlight Case

Our firm handles intellectual property matters, including such issues as trade disputes. Big companies sometimes steal new copyrights and inventions from small companies. This happened to a company called Ajaxo in an important published decision. Ajaxo v. E*Trade (2005) 135 Cal.App.4th 21. Our firm has been associated to assist the plaintiffs in resolving this dispute and we remain open to continue to handle similar matters.

Intellectual Property and Trade Disputes

Oakland/Bay Area Trade Dispute Litigation

At Gwilliam, Ivary, Chiosso, Cavalli & Brewer, a new but growing part of our practice is focused on trade secret and intellectual property disputes. This primarily involves allegations of stolen technology.

Keeping our clients' interests as the top priority requires us to accept only those cases we strongly believe in. However, when we do agree to accept a case, we do so wholeheartedly and are willing to take it as far as it needs to go to obtain a just result for our client.

Should you decide to hire us, a team that includes one of the firm's partners, an associate attorney, a paralegal and a secretary will be assigned to you. This guarantees you that a trial lawyer with 25 to 40 years of experience will be actively involved in the management and handling of your case and that someone who knows your case, and you, will almost always be available to discuss concerns or questions you have at any point.

If you are currently involved in an IP infringement or trade dispute, or are considering the possibility of referring a prospective client to our firm — your call or e-mail message will be reviewed by an attorney on our staff and responded to as promptly as possible.
