Career
For more than 20 years, Julia Markley has represented businesses in trade secret, trademark, copyright, patent, nondisclosure agreement, license, contract, and other complex commercial disputes. A skilled appellate lawyer, Julia also handles cases raising contractual, constitutional, arbitration, tax, and permitting issues.
Julia has dedicated her career to advocating for her clients in a range of industries, including technology, communications, medical device, construction, energy, mining, manufacturing, food, and retail. Clients describe her as a seasoned, professional litigation lawyer. Her innovative IP litigation counsel includes the successful defense of an e-tailer accused of trademark and copyright infringement; her cutting-edge, winning argument addressed the liability of parties that never have contact with the product. Julia also has won enforcement of an executive severance agreement for an investment bank at arbitration; prevailed on a motion for temporary restraining order for an energy company that drove a favorable settlement; and resolved a case on the courthouse steps for a medical device company against a software consultant after a key pretrial evidentiary ruling.
