We secured a favorable resolution of all claims on behalf of Signify

Davis Polk successfully defended Signify Health Inc. against trade-secret-misappropriation and other claims brought by CareCentrix Inc. in the District of Delaware. CareCentrix claimed that Signify Health hired a CareCentrix executive to obtain trade secrets and unfairly compete, and it moved for a preliminary injunction. Signify Health strongly denied the trade-secret and other claims. We defended against the preliminary-injunction motion, which we argued in July 2021.

The court denied the preliminary injunction entirely as to Signify in December 2021. Signify had previously agreed to sideline the executive for a year, and the case settled favorably, achieving benefits to the client that far outweighed the cost of defense.

Signify Health is a leading healthcare platform that leverages advanced analytics, technology and nationwide healthcare networks to create and power value-based payment programs.

The Davis Polk litigation team included partners Ashok Ramani and Dana M. Seshens and counsel Philip T. Sheng. Members of the Davis Polk team are based in the New York and Northern California offices.

Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP acted as local counsel on the matter.
