About This Course
Restrictive covenants are typical tools employers use to decrease competition and millions of employees in the US are under some form of non-competition or non-solicitation agreement. The courts’ view of these agreements vary from that of employers as they seek to ensure that they are reasonable and don’t unduly restrict competition in the market. This CLE course will focus on these types of agreements, how to draft them, and necessary components to create an enforceable restricted covenant including scope, reasonableness, adequate consideration as well as tips and strategies to avoid potential pitfalls.
