The Connecticut Law Tribune Notes Kelley Drye’s India Practice

The Connecticut Law Tribune article, Companies that Outsource Face New Legal Risk,” reviewed a case where a Connecticut medical billing company, Glenwood, accused three people in India of stealing proprietary trade information to start competing companies. Glenwood claimed their information was used to start two new competing medical billing companies in California and India. The Second Circuit affirmed the lower court’s ruling.
