Non-Competition Agreement

New Jersey

Asked on Jun 29, 2022

Profit sharing legal services across countrys legal?

My friend owns a Company in UK that shares a profit agreement to a limated liability company in Delaware, if they were to terminate there contract and the non competee they are stating i must shut down my buisiness for 6 months legal?

Angela Y.

Answered Aug 9, 2022

The answer depends largely on two factors: 1) what documentation did you sign that had non-compete language and 2) whether the non-compete is enforceable. Many states are trending towards non-enforceability of non-competes, depending on how burdensome they are on the person.

Physician Employment Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jul 5, 2023

Physician employment agreement confidentiality?

I have recently accepted a position as a physician at a new practice and I have been asked to sign an employment agreement. I am interested in understanding what type of confidentiality is required in this agreement, as I do not want to compromise any of the practice's confidential information. I would like to know what the agreement states about confidentiality and what the consequences are for any breach of confidentiality.

Mark D.

Answered Aug 4, 2023

This would require a review of the agreement. The typical cost for such a review is $750 but can cost more depending on the complexity of the issues involved.

Physician Employment Agreement

Connecticut

Asked on Jul 11, 2023

Physician employment agreement non-solicitation clauses?

I am a physician who is currently in the process of negotiating an employment agreement with a hospital. I am concerned about the non-solicitation clause in the agreement, as I do not want to be restricted from building relationships with my patients should I choose to leave the hospital in the future. I am looking for guidance on how to structure this clause to ensure that I am able to maintain my professional relationships with patients.

Thomas L.

Answered Aug 15, 2023

Non-Competes in Connecticut for physicians are limited to 15 miles and one year. In addition, a non-compete agreement is not enforceable if the employment relationship is terminated by the employer without cause, or the agreement is not made in anticipation of, or as part of, a partnership or ownership agreement. Aks your prospective employer if they are aware of Connecticut law, and in particular Conn. Gen Stat. § 20-14p.

My company was recently sold but the new company kept the employees. Former won’t hand over our pay information. The new company has requested that we hand in our last pay stub.

Moxie M.

Answered Feb 17, 2023

The National Labor Relations Act prohibits an employer from engaging in retaliation against two (2) or more employees who band together to for mutual aid and protection, including raising concerns about lack of pay details. See link here: https://www.nlrb.gov/about-nlrb/rights-we-protect/the-law/interfering-with-employee-rights-section-7-8a1 If the company has failed to compensate employees for work, it may be a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and/or the Florida Minimum Wage Act (if the employer and employee meet coverage requirements). Florida Whistleblower Act, Fla. Stat. 448.102 provides whistleblower protection for employees who are retaliated for raising certain concerns in the workplace: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0400-0499/0448/Sections/0448.102.html Finally, if employees have an employment agreement providing pay for their employment, they may have a contractual right to those monies at their pay.

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.
