Employer Legal Questions and Answers

General Partnership

California

Asked on Apr 14, 2023

Can partners hire employees in a general partnership?

I am a small business owner considering setting up a general partnership with another business owner. We are both looking to maximize our resources and capabilities by hiring employees, but I am unsure of the legal implications. Can partners in a general partnership hire employees, and what are the legal requirements for doing so?

Michael S.

Answered May 12, 2023

Partners in a general partnership have apparent authority to take any action on behalf of the partnership, including hiring employees. This is true even if the partners have agreed between themselves that one a partner does not have the authority to hire employees. A partnership that limits the authority of one partner would give rise to a claim by one partner against the other, but third parties can rely on the apparent authority of a partner to make hiring decisions.

Noncompete Agreement

Connecticut

Asked on Jul 13, 2023

Can a noncompete agreement be waived?

I am a small business owner in the retail industry and I am looking to hire a new employee. The employee has a noncompete agreement with their previous employer that I am concerned about. I want to know if it's possible for the agreement to be waived so that I can be sure I'm making the right decision in hiring this employee.

Thomas L.

Answered Jul 21, 2023

Yes, the parties to contracts can always agree to amendments and waivers. However, the former employer may have no interest in waiving the contract in this particular situation.

Noncompete Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 6, 2023

How to draft a noncompete agreement?

I am a business owner who is looking to hire a new employee and I want to ensure that my business does not suffer from any competition that the employee might bring in the future. I need to know how to draft a noncompete agreement so that I can protect my business from any potential risks.

Daniel D.

Answered Jul 21, 2023

Some things that would be relevant to know are: what industry are you in? What specific competition are you worried about? Are you going to include non-disclosure provisions, no-solicitation provisions or non-circumvention provisions? What risks are you specifically worried about?

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 Review

Contracts 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 Review

I 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 Review

I 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.
