Federal authorities, for the second time in three years, charged an employee of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, a prominent law firm, with using confidential information about corporate deals to make illegal trades in stocks.

Dmitry Braverman, an information technology employee with Wilson Sonsini, was charged Tuesday with generating about $297,000 in illegal profits from insider trading in eight stocks. Mr. Braverman, 41, was arrested by F.B.I. agents in San Mateo, Calif., a law enforcement spokesman said. []

Mr. Braverman’s arrest comes more than three years after federal authorities charged Matthew Kluger, a former Wilson Sonsini lawyer, with taking part in a 17-year insider trading conspiracy that netted him and his associates more than $32 million in illegal profits.
