If you have non-disclosure agreements with your contractors you should
also make VERY sure that all of the material you provide to them is
marked as "Company Confidential". Talk to your lawyer to make sure your
confidentiality statement is strong. All of your source code and all
documentation that describes the software should have a statement
explaining that this work is "important" to the company and have "great
value".

If your work is marked you have a chance in court. If it isn't you don't
have much if any chance. The simple fact is that if you don't tell
people what is confidential and important to your company how can you
expect them to know this -- even if you have a NDA. The NDA should say
that you will have all important work so marked.

Many of the other replies are very valid too.
