Business Contracts

Non-Competition Agreement

California

Asked on Jan 27, 2022

My previous job had a secret non-compete closure

I left my previous job because I did not appreciate how I was treated when returning from maternity leave. I stepped down because with a colic infant and a national staffing shortage I couldn’t handle the work load, right after I stepped down they changed the schedule to minimize stress for the current programs director. They also allowed employees to unprofessional to me, when I returned the employee I trained and managed for years lectured me how todo my current position and asked if I had any disabilities or injuries because I had a C-section. This company for years treated me differently then other employees even though I ran and managed profitable programs. Before I left I asked Premier Aquatics that I wanted to be placed in a position similar to the one I had before, and they didn’t have a position for me. I decided to resign and I want to work for another company near their location. I’ve known in the past that they do come after employees with a non-compete and they never offered me anything for the non-compete.

JOSEPH L.

Answered Feb 8, 2022

Generally speaking non-competes are not enforceable in California against employees or independent contractors. The situation may be different depending on all the facts if you were an equity owner or partner in the company. Also, when a business is sold, a reasonable non-compete is enforceable against the former owner(s) since they were paid as part of the purchase price for non-competition representations. California has long had a public policy against non-compete clauses against employees and independent contractors since it affects their ability to earn a living. I am not sure what information you have about them "coming after other employees". Note: I don't have all the facts, and this answer is for informational and research purposes only.

Business Purchase Agreement

Texas

Asked on Oct 16, 2023

Does a business purchase agreement need witnesses?

I am considering purchasing a business and I am in the process of drafting a business purchase agreement. I understand that certain documents and agreements require witnesses to be present, but I am unsure if a business purchase agreement is one of them. I would like to know if a business purchase agreement needs witnesses or not.

Michael A.

Answered Nov 10, 2023

A Business Purchase Agreement does not REQUIRE witnesses. However, witnesses, if unaffiliated and uninterested 3rd parties, witness the execution signatures on the Business Purchase Agreement, it may become important if a dispute arises between buyer and seller.

Contractor Agreement

Texas

Asked on Oct 17, 2024

Can a contractor agreement be terminated if the contractor fails to meet the performance standards outlined in the agreement?

I recently entered into a contractor agreement with a construction company to build an extension on my house. The agreement explicitly states that the contractor is required to complete the project within a specified timeframe and meet certain quality standards. However, it has become evident that the contractor is consistently failing to meet these performance standards, resulting in delays and subpar workmanship. I am concerned about the implications of terminating the agreement and whether I have the legal right to do so without facing any legal repercussions.

Lorraine C.

Answered Oct 18, 2024

Without reviewing the contractor agreement, it would be difficult to advise you on whether you have a right to terminate the agreement either with or without notice to the contractor. If the agreement was prepared by an attorney, I imagine there are a sections that define breaches, terminations, and notice requirements. If you were to terminate the agreement in violation of the terms, that could open you up to significant potential liability. If you would like me to review the contract and discuss your options, please contact me directly. Regardless, I do recommend that you have an attorney review the contract and advise you regarding termination-- whether you choose to work with me or not. Thank you, and good luck!

Sponsorship Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 29, 2024

Can a sponsorship agreement be terminated if the sponsor fails to fulfill their obligations?

I am currently in the process of negotiating a sponsorship agreement with a potential sponsor for an event I am organizing. However, I have concerns about the sponsor's ability to fulfill their obligations as outlined in the agreement, such as providing financial support and promotional materials. I would like to know if there are any legal grounds for terminating the agreement if the sponsor fails to meet these obligations, and what steps I should take to protect myself and my event in such a situation.

Damien B.

Answered Dec 30, 2024

If the sponsor doesn't fulfill their obligations as outlined in the agreement, it could be considered a breach of contract. You would refer to any termination clause or event of default clause in the agreement. You would want to have an agreement with a termination clause to protect yourself and possibly an event of default section. Outside the agreement, you would want to document all communication regarding the matter. Feel free to reach out if you have a follow-up question.

Business Purchase Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Oct 18, 2023

Are non-competes part of a business purchase agreement?

I am in the process of purchasing a business and need to know if a non-compete agreement is part of the purchase agreement. I understand that the non-compete agreement will help to protect my business from competition but I am not sure if this is included in the purchase agreement. I also need to know the implications of including a non-compete agreement in the purchase agreement.

Bobby H.

Answered Oct 20, 2023

Many purchase agreements do include non-competes, which are typically geographically limited and limited in terms of duration. The implication for the seller is straight forward. As a practial matter, the buyer benefits from a non-compete because it limits competion from the seller for business within the community in which the buyer will operate following the purchase of the business, or competition from the seller over the same potential customers, which aids profitability.
