Non-Compete Agreements
We draft non-compete agreements for :
Convincing Employees Not to become a Competitor
It is wise to win before a fight, if possible. Our attorneys draft non-compete agreements that can be read, are easily understood, convey that the employer/employee relationship should be based on trust, and that it is each employee’s best interest to abide by the promises they made in their non-compete agreement. Convincing everyone to honor their non-compete agreement commitments saves time, stress, legal fees, collection fees, and reputation. Having a non-compete agreement that convinces would-be wrongdoers to act correctly allows everyone to focus on the business they love, and not the conflict they create.

The truth is in the middle. Non-compete agreements are disfavored in politics, public opinion, and in courts. Many non-compete agreements are not enforceable because the contracts are poorly drafted, or do not apply to the factual situation. Properly drafted, specifically tailored non-compete agreements are very enforceable and work to prevent unfair competition and talent theft.
