Job flexibility in a competitive environment can put employers at risk. To protect their business interests, companies are using noncompete agreements to protect against former employees working at a rival firm. However, strict laws apply to these covenants, so a skilled attorney is necessary to explain the rules in your jurisdiction. At Milman Labuda Law Group PLLC, we provide authoritative legal advice to employers regarding the drafting, negotiation and enforcement of noncompete agreements. Our lawyers can give you a clear understanding of the steps you can take to protect your business interests.
States take different approaches to noncompete agreements, so it is important that you get advice geared to your location and business. Whether you are looking to create a general covenant or one that addresses one particular employee, our Lake Success attorneys will draft a document that comports with all regulations. We conduct a comprehensive analysis of agreement terms including:
Even if an agreement has been previously executed, the terms might not be valid according to state law. We can evaluate existing covenants and inform you of your legal rights.
Whether you submit a noncompete agreement to a worker at the beginning or end of their employment, conflict might arise. We are strong advocates for employers during discussions and disputes regarding covenant terms. Most of these disputes can be resolved quickly, but we can pursue violators through litigation.
