Re: starting a business
It may be a binding contract. Noncompete agreements are generally disfavored under Tennessee law, but they will be enforced if certain conditions are met. I've prepared a web page which answers most of the most common questions about the enforcement of noncompete agreements. It can be found at www.memphisemploymentlawyer.net. After you get there, follow the link to unlawful employment practices. If you have follow-up questions after reading that, you can email me at [email protected].
