Crystal Lake Non-Competition Lawyer
A non-competition agreement may be a necessity if you want to get out of your current contract, but it can also negatively impact your ability to find new work. If you are negotiating a covenant not to compete, you want someone on your side protecting your rights. At the law offices of Favaro & Gorman, our Palatine non-compete attorneys help people across Illinois negotiate non-competition agreements and handle disputes with former employers.
Protecting Your Future Employment Opportunities
A covenant not to compete can be oppressive, limiting your ability to find and keep a new job. If your employer is asking you to sign a non-compete agreement, we can help you negotiate a fair deal that minimizes the restrictions on where you can work, when you can work and what kind of work you can pursue. If you have already signed a non-compete agreement, we can help you assess your options.
We will look at every aspect of your non-competition agreement, including:
- Restrictive covenants
- Confidentiality agreements
- Trade secrets
- Employment agreement
- Separation agreements
The more your covenant not to compete restricts your ability to pursue employment elsewhere, the more likely it is to be enforced. If your former employer has decided to take action against you for violating your covenant not to compete, we will be ready to protect your rights in court. We can participate in litigation to get an injunction.
