- James Dooley frequently serves lead counsel in major trade secret litigation as an experienced and trustworthy advisor, a member of the team who combines his scholarship and practical experience to add unique value. Company counsel rely on Jim to help investigate and assess potential or ongoing disputes. Due to his unique background, his clients benefit not only from his expertise but also from the efficiency that comes with over forty years of practice in this field. Trade secret cases by their nature can be unpredictable and difficult to manage, so it helps to have a steady, independent source of seasoned advice. Jim can apply his independent perspective at any phase of a case, but may be particularly helpful as settlement counsel in mediation, allowing lead counsel to maintain the traditional role of advocate.
