Noncompete Agreement
New Jersey
Can I work for a competitor with my current noncompete?
I have ended my non competent consulting agreement with my current employee and I have an offer to work as an employer “not as consultant” with a competitor company to my privious employees so can I work as an employee without any problem? The consultant agreement says the following: Under any circumstances the consultant shall not engage directly or indirectly either as a principal agent , consultant,stock holder , partner or in any other capacity whatsoever have any other relationship with any business which compete with the company in USA.
Donya G.
I would need to review the agreement to see what it says, what is prohibited. Will need to see the agreement. Generally non competes have a set time frame. Has that time frame already passed? DISCLAIMER The answers to these questions do not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship with the attorney and anyone who reviews these responses.

Consulting Agreement
New Jersey
What to look for in a consulting agreement?
I have been given a consulting agreement to sign by a potential client and want to learn the things I should be looking for to make sure I am protected and not getting into a contract I dont' want to get into. Are there any terms that are most important?
Angela Y.
In general, consulting agreements are independent contractor agreements, which in their most basic forms are someone is paying you "x" amount for work that you do with limited or no benefits (i.e. you're not an employee). Important sections include the services section (i.e. what you are doing for them), compensation, restrictive covenants (non-competes, etc.), work product and ownership or work product, and termination. Other important sections depend on what type of services you are providing and the types of risks inherent to those services.

Amendment To Employment Contract
Massachusetts
Who helps with healthcare employment contracts?
I am a Nurse Practitioner and work for a national wound care company. I have a current employment contract but my company has made an amendment to it which discusses my newer compensation model (work RVU). I would like someone to look over my contract with this amendment. Can you help me find someone. I am in Massachusetts (Springfield area). Thank you
Richard G.
I would be happy to review your contract. I am a registered nurse myself as well as an attorney and have a great deal of experience in contract review. My flat fee is $300 for this service and would result in a thorough evaluation of all aspects (from a legal perspective) of the current contract and how the amendment alters that legal perspective.

Stock Purchase Agreement

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.

Employment Handbook
Washington
Employment handbook vacation policy?
I recently accepted a new job and was given an employee handbook to read over. I read the policies regarding vacation time, but I am unclear about how exactly the policy works and what the process is for taking a vacation. I want to make sure I understand the policy correctly and that I am following the correct procedure for requesting vacation time.
Merry A.
Hello - I am a Washington State employment law attorney. It can often be difficult to understand a policy in an employee handbook. I would suggest two things: (1) Do not ask about the policy or how to interpret it until you have completed at least two months on the job - wait until your supervisor and coworkers get to know you; most likely, you are not eligible for vacation leave until you have been on the job for several months anyway. (2) After two months, ask your supervisor about the policy - not HR. Your supervisor is most likely the person who will have to approve your leave, and he or she will appreciate that you went to him or her instead of going to HR.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
