Microsoft

Smart dot.coms know that stopping piracy of their software requires good security, consumer education and tough enforcement.  That's why Microsoft turns to the Intellectual Property and Technology Group at Stites & Harbison.

These attorneys—led by Joel Beres and David Nagle—have pursued dozens of vendors of counterfeit Microsoft software products throughout the courts of Tennessee, Kentucky and Ohio, filing actions involving the distribution of thousands of units of counterfeit software.  Thanks to winning monetary damages or getting injunctions against counterfeiters, the firm helps protect Microsoft's biggest asset.
