Internal Policies and Procedures

Protect Your Competitive Edge with Robust Internal Policies

Trade secrets and trade dress are essential for maintaining a business’s competitive advantage and brand identity. However, these assets require strong internal policies to remain protected. At Isaboke Law, we help businesses develop internal policies and procedures that safeguard their most valuable information and product designs.

What Are Trade Secrets and Trade Dress?

  • Trade Secrets: Confidential information—such as formulas, customer lists, or processes—that gives your business a competitive advantage.

  • Trade Dress: The visual appearance or design of your product or packaging that distinguishes it from others, such as the unique shape of a bottle or logo placement.

Why Internal Policies Matter for Trade Secrets and Trade Dress

Without proper safeguards, your trade secrets and trade dress can be easily compromised. Internal policies help:

  • Prevent unauthorized disclosure of confidential information.

  • Establish protocols for how employees handle sensitive data.

  • Define enforcement procedures in the event of theft or misuse.
