Non-Compete Agreement
Non-compete agreements are tricky, and there is no one answer to your questions. A lawyer cannot give you advice without reviewing the agreement, and perhaps other related documents as well. The lawyer will also need to know the circumstances under which the agreement was signed. The question of what state law applies is also important, as is the actual place of employment. Should you wish a consultation with our firm, please call Janice Beem at 713.526.5677. Thanks, and good luck. Margie Harris
