Employment Law Solutions for Southeast Texas Since 1992
Typically, an agreement or "covenant" not to compete against a former employer is one of many provisions contained in contracts of substantial size and scope, such as employment agreements. In Texas, courts have held that enforceability of a non-compete agreement depends on:
- Its inclusion as part of an "otherwise enforceable agreement"
- Its need to be "ancillary" to the otherwise enforceable agreement
- Its need to be "reasonable in scope, time and geographical area"
In addition to representing businesses and salaried executives in disputes involving non-compete agreements, we preventively advise businesses considering the hiring of individuals who are bound by non-compete clauses. We can also represent companies whose former employees are believed to have violated their non-compete agreements.
