Jonathan Pollard has defended more than 150 cases involving alleged misappropriation of trade secrets or confidential information.
Pollard has repeatedly been recognized by Super Lawyers and Chambers & Partners. He is widely regarded as an expert on the defense of non-compete and trade secret litigation.
In this video, Pollard focuses on defending high stakes misappropriation of trade secret cases where the defendant has took documents. The fact that a defendant took documents is not dispositive.
Pollard gives a recent example of a 2025 trade secret case that him and his firm defended. Their clients had taken certain documents from a prior employer and were being sued for $25 million for theft of trade secrets and other claims.
Pollard's strategy: Own the bad facts and immediately admit that the Defendants took certain documents. That strategy was the right one. Pollard was able to defeat key parts of the Plaintiff's request for injunctive relief. The resulting partial injunction allowed his clients to continue operating and growing their business.
Pollard PLLC routinely defends high stakes misappropriation of trade secrets cases in Florida and beyond. The Firm often does so on a fixed fee basis, with a set fee per phase of the case rather than billable hours.
The Firm's Fort Lauderdale office can be reached at 954-332-2380.

This was 5 days after I reported disability harassment and severe retaliation.
Obviously I didn’t take but man it takes me back how ruthless these F’s are all in an attempt to avoid accountability and truth telling.
