Acceptable Use Policy
Georgia
Can I be held legally responsible for violating an Acceptable Use Policy?
I work for a large technology company and recently discovered that I unintentionally violated our company's Acceptable Use Policy by using company resources for personal purposes. Although I did not realize this was against the policy, I'm concerned about potential legal consequences and whether I can be held personally liable for any damages or disciplinary actions as a result of this violation.
Sara S.
Hi, Your employee handbook may have the answer to this and is worth a review with a qualified attorney. Attorneys skilled in intellectual property may be able to give you more insight as well.

Stock Purchase Agreement
New York
Stock purchase agreement and non-competition clauses?
I am in the process of buying a business and have been asked to sign a Stock Purchase Agreement. I am concerned about the language in the agreement that includes a non-competition clause, and would like to understand the implications of signing the agreement and if there are any potential risks that I should be aware of.

Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement
New York
Can an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement prevent me from sharing my negative experiences with a company on social media?
I recently left my previous job at a company and signed an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) during my employment. While working there, I experienced a toxic work environment, witnessed unethical practices, and was subjected to discrimination. I want to share my experiences on social media to warn others and potentially seek support, but I'm concerned that the NDA I signed may prevent me from doing so. Can the NDA legally restrict me from sharing my negative experiences with the company on social media?
Danny J.
Employee Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) can indeed impact your ability to share certain information, but their scope and enforceability can be complex: 1. Purpose of NDAs: Typically protect confidential business information, not personal experiences. 2. Scope: The specific language in your NDA determines what information is covered. 3. Public interest: Some courts may not enforce NDAs that conceal illegal or unethical practices. 4. Whistleblower protections: Certain laws may protect disclosures of wrongdoing. 5. Defamation risks: Even without an NDA, false statements could lead to legal issues. However, the specifics of your situation require careful analysis: - The exact terms of your NDA - Nature of the information you want to share - Applicable state and federal laws - Potential risks and consequences Given the complexities and potential legal implications, it would be prudent to have a legal professional review your specific NDA and circumstances. As an experienced employment law attorney, I could: 1. Analyze your NDA's terms and enforceability 2. Advise on your rights and potential risks 3. Explore legal options for addressing your concerns 4. Guide you on how to proceed safely Would you like to discuss your situation in detail and explore your options for sharing your experiences while minimizing legal risks?

Settlement Agreement
Illinois
Can settlement agreements include non-monetary terms?
I recently entered into a settlement agreement with another party, and I am trying to determine whether non-monetary terms can be included in the agreement. I am concerned about potential liabilities and obligations that may arise from the agreement if non-monetary terms are included. I would like to know what legal considerations I should take into account when crafting the agreement.
Andre T.
Settlement agreements can contain any provisions that the parties are willing to agree to provided that those provisions are not illegal or against public policy. There are also safe guards that can be included in the language of the agreement so that legally enforceable terms are undisturbed even if part of the agreement may be found to be invalid.

Employment Handbook
North Carolina
Employment handbook non-compete policy?
I recently accepted a job offer with a new company, and part of the offer was that I had to sign an Employment Handbook. This Handbook includes a non-compete policy that I am not comfortable with, as it restricts my ability to work with certain clients and organizations. I am concerned about the implications of this policy, and I would like to understand my rights and obligations under this policy so that I can make an informed decision about my employment.
N'kia N.
A covenant not to compete (AKA "non-competition clause," "non-compete clause," or simply "non-compete") is a special contract term often found in employment agreements. However, not all jurisdictions allow non-competes in employment agreements. Additionally, to be valid/enforceable, a non-compete must be narrowly tailored to a legitimate business interest. An employee who has concerns about the validity/enforceability of a non-compete, or about specific rights and obligations under a non-compete, should consider speaking with a knowledgeable attorney.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
