I do not know what your product is, but just developing a product is 20% of the work, the other 80% lies in adapting the product from your original idea to what the market wants and advertising and expanding your customer base....the other 80% is something they can not steal...
If I was you I would not waste money on fancy lawyers who will tell me everything I want to hear, but invest that money in advertising and/or development...pfizer has a physical product and a chemical patent and brand name and billions of $ and even then they loose:
google: kamagra <----indian jelly viagra
you have a piece of code and getting access to the thiefs servers will prove to be an impossible task for you...the moment he feels the heat he can move the server to the other side of the planet and you are back to square one...the only layer of security he needs is to pick up some lost ID in a library and he probably has everything he needs to be a complete ghost to you...
just develop and do your thing IMO
