Restrictive Covenants
Employment contracts are typically drafted by the employer to include certain restrictive covenants that safeguard trade secrets and protect its business from any damage that could be caused by a former employee after employment ends. Employers draft these contracts in their own favor and usually fail to consider the rights of employees.
Non-compete and confidentiality agreements prevent employees from performing certain work or revealing methods or skills after employment has ended. Parties usually enter into non-compete agreements or nondisclosure agreements at the beginning of the employment relationship.
While employers have the right to protect the success of their business, employees have the right to move on and advance in their careers. This can lead to various conflicts involving agreements not to compete, trade secret protections, and other restrictive covenants.
Non-compete Agreements
A non-compete agreement may prevent an employee from working in a certain job, for a specific competitor, or in a particular industry for a period of time after employment ends. In this economy, particularly for employees with a specific set of skills, this can limit job opportunities and have a devastating effect on an individual’s ability to work.
Non-competition agreements are disfavored by North Carolina courts and must be limited in scope, time, and geographic area. The attorneys at GMFM can review non-compete agreement and seek to protect your ability to earn a living. We can also challenge overly broad non-compete agreements that unfairly limit an employee’s ability to work.

These nondisclosure agreements protect employer from harmful disclosures by employees and former employees.
