Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

Employee Noncompete and Confidentiality Agreement

How binding is this sort of

agreement? Is it limited to a certain

area relative to the business

location? Is there a time timit after

the employee has resigned or been

fired? Can the employer stifle the

livelyhood of the employee should an

issue arise and the relationship

ceases to exist?

Re: Employee Noncompete and Confidentiality Agreement

These types of cases tend to be very case specific. They should be handled by professiomals who deal with business torts.

That said, most have to be reasonable in time and distance. Again what qualifies as reasonable will depend heavily on the facts of your situation.

If you would like to discuss this, I handle these types of cases and would gladly speak to you about yours. You may connect with me by following the links below.
