Breach of Contract/Restrictive Covenants

New York Non-Compete Agreement Disputes

As a condition of employment, executives, key managers, high-tech employees, and other people with specialized knowledge or access to trade secrets are often asked to sign non-compete agreements. The terms of this type of restrictive covenant may define a particular geographical area in which the employee may not work and will almost always specify a defined period of time that they cannot work for a competitor after their employment has ended.

Breach of contract claims can arise when an employer oversteps their bounds in the restrictions they place on employees, and when employees ignore or are unaware of what they can and cannot do as a result.
