Trial Science conducted several rounds of pre-trial research for Paul Yetter and Collin Cox [of Yetter Coleman based in Houston] in the case of Business Logic Corporation versus Morningstar/Ibbotson. This was a complicated trade secret case involving retirement fund management software.

With the critical case factors revealed, a powerful jury profile in hand, and a recent MSJ saying there was a breach of the contract by the defendants, Yetter and Cox positioned this case for a $61 million settlement.  According to the data that could be found, this is the 9^th largest revealed settlement in the realm of trade secret cases ever.

It pays to prepare — literally!
