[Free CLE] What Is A Non-Compete Agreement, And Why Should I Care?

Free CLE of This Month will be discussing the use of technology in 2019. Technology has changed the business dramatically over the last few years,

and you should stay up-to-date with the latest trends. This session will provide a roadmap for how tech is changing in 2019 and what that means for your business.

A non-compete agreement is a legal contract that’s typically agreed upon when one person or company (the contracting party) hires another person or company (the talent) to be an employee.

If you sign a non-compete, it means you’re agreeing not to go into business for yourself, work with a competitor company, open up your own competing business, or work in a similar capacity at any other company within specified geographic borders.

Non-competes are increasingly being used by employers as a way to protect their intellectual property and trade secrets, although they may not always be enforceable by law.

This session will discuss what constitutes a non-compete, why employers implement them, and how you can get around them should your employer ask you to sign one.
