Remedies for California Businesses When Trade Secrets are Misappropriated

When a business works hard to develop systems, procedures, recipes, formulas, and practices—protectable as trade secrets—to advance the success, productivity, and profitability of their business, they have great interest in protecting that information from those who may steal or misappropriate the business’s trade secrets. Trade secrets are a form of intellectual property, along with patents, copyrights, and trademarks; however, there is no formal registration process to protect trade secrets. Instead, trade secrets are protected by a contractual agreement between the owner of the proprietary information and any other individual who may have access to this information and signs a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement. If you are a California business owner and believe that proprietary trade secrets belonging to your business

Uber facing business litigation over employee classification

On behalf of Thaler Law posted in business litigation on Tuesday, September 17, 2019. When a person starts work for a company, he or she will have a certain classification. The way that companies classify workers affects how these individuals are paid, including whether they are eligible for overtime and a guaranteed minimum wage. The issue of classification presents a unique problem for rideshare companies that contract with drivers on an as-needed basis, and as a result, Uber is currently facing business litigation. New laws in the state of California may change the way the company views its employees. A bill that was recently passed seems to require a reclassification of rideshare company employees, but Uber plans to debate this

Business formation decisions impact a young business

On behalf of Thaler Law posted in business formation on Tuesday, September 3, 2019. Starting a business involves much more than just deciding on a good business idea and creating a Facebook page. The business formation stage involves much planning, financial preparation and legal steps that will impact a young California business for years to come. When a company is not able to secure the capital needed, there are choices that an owner can make that can prove beneficial for years to come.

One way that an owner can make this process easier is to plan operations in a way that allows for overhead costs to remain low.

Using preprinted contracts may not be good for business

On behalf of Thaler Law posted in contracts on Tuesday, August 20, 2019. Running a successful small business is not easy, which is why many California business owners often look for ways they can save time and money. One way they may do this is by using preprinted contracts when negotiating and formalizing business transactions. Simply printing off a pre-made contract seems like a good idea, but in reality, it may not be the best choice. In simple and straightforward transactions or in situations where two familiar parties are repeating the same transaction again, a pre-made contract could work. Sometimes, all that is necessary is a simple explanation of the rights, expectations and benefits of both parties. In these cases,

Writing contracts to ensure that businesses get paid

On behalf of Thaler Law posted in business formation on Tuesday, July 23, 2019. When it comes to legal agreements, it's important for a business to take the time to ensure that the terms of the agreement meet its needs and allow for continued cooperation between the two parties. One of the most difficult challenges that a California company may face is securing payment from clients. Strong contracts can help a company get payment from its customers and clients in a timely manner.

Planning for the future during the business formation process

On behalf of Thaler Law posted in business formation on Wednesday, July 10, 2019. It's impossible to predict the future, but there are specific things that business owners can do that will protect their long-term interests. One of these things includes implementing certain plans and procedures during the business formation process that will go into effect in the event of their sudden death.
