“Monty Myers and his team have been a key factor in my successful litigation of trade secrets cases. Monty is not only knowledgeable about the highly technical aspects of software development and forensic analysis, but he also has a firm grasp of the business processes involved. Likewise, he communicates like a business person – so his testimony is clear and understandable and even enjoyable because we're all learning from him and his colleagues. One of my favorite aspects of working with Monty's team is that they delve deep enough, early enough, to help craft the parameters of the dispute.”
