Rochester Non-Compete Agreement Attorneys

What Is a Non-Compete Agreement?

This can vary depending on the business, profession, industry, and state, but generally, a non-compete agreement seeks to protect a company from losing confidential information, competitive advantages, trade secrets, customers, and employees.

Are Non-Compete Agreements Worthwhile?

With the time, effort, and resources that are put into growing a company, many owners have decided to take action against the loss they face when an employee, partner, or other person leaves and takes their experience, knowledge, and training to a competitor.

While non-compete agreements can be valuable to protect the business or professional practice, they may also be unenforceable under New York law or public policy.

What Determines if The Non-Compete Agreement Can be Enforced?

A non-compete agreement may be found enforceable if it:

• Does not pose a public harm
• Is not overly burdensome
• Is reasonable in terms of location and time
• Addresses legitimate concerns for the business

Depending on the industry or profession, there are numerous issues to consider that could affect or limit the enforceability of a restrictive covenant. Our Rochester non-compete agreement attorneys ensure that your rights and interests are protected to the fullest extent of the law.
