JEANNE FUGATE
Partner
King & Spalding
Jeanne Fugate is a go-to partner on employee mobility issues and other complex civil litigation. A former journalist, Fugate excels at fast-paced and persuasive writing to get to the heart of the issues clearly and efficiently. In order to litigate in these high stakes claims, lawyers are often called upon to respond quickly to demand letters and to immediately move to draft and/or defend against requests for TROs and preliminary injunctions.
A standout career accomplishment for Fugate was her role in a $6.15 million damages award for a leading aircraft supply company following a three-week jury trial in a trade secrets case. The client Ansett Aircraft sued its former comptroller and two competitor companies for stealing trade secrets.
