Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe is bringing in Silicon Valley veteran James Pooley to help clients worldwide negotiate new federal and European trade secret laws.
Pooley recently served a five-year stint in Switzerland as a deputy director of the UN’s World Intellectual Property Organization. Orrick is banking on robust demand for his expertise and international perspective as global companies sort out the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act, signed into law May 11, and the European Trade Secrets Directive, adopted by the EU Council two weeks later. The 67-year-old litigator joins the firm as senior counsel.
