Legal Question in Business Law in Georgia

Non-Disclosure Agreement

I have volunteered my business consulting services to help a women's network organization that is posturing itself to go national. I have been asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement; however, there seems to be a non-compete component added. Would this have an adverse impact on my organization that I am representing? Both the organization that I am to volunteer with and mine are involved in business management consulting.

Re: Non-Disclosure Agreement

I'm not sure I understand the relationships of the parties involved, but the non-compete would have an adverse affect on anyone who signs it. It may also affect the related companies if they aid in competition. I would recommend having an attorney review the entire agreement and advise on its affects.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

Re: Non-Disclosure Agreement

Without reviewing the documents involved with the two organizations, it is impossible to give you a reliable response. You need to have a local attorney review these docs.
