About the Program
Restrictive covenants are essential tools to help employers guard against unfair competition in an age of frequent employee mobility. However, employers seeking to enter into noncompete or non-solicitation agreements with employees must understand the potential limitations on their enforceability and craft them to withstand court scrutiny.
When it comes to restrictive covenants, one size does not fit all. Enforceable noncompete and non-solicitation agreements should be supported by sufficient consideration, be reasonable in scope and duration when such restrictions are permitted by applicable law, and include provisions that are appropriate for the individual circumstances. Employers should also develop an effective process for enforcing restrictive covenants when workers depart.
Listen as our authoritative panel of employment attorneys discusses best practices for drafting clear and enforceable restrictive covenants that protect their clients from unfair competition and withstand court scrutiny. The experienced panel will discuss the elements of effective restrictive covenants and review the latest state court developments regarding the validity of noncompete and non-solicitation agreements.
