Event Description:

Prudent Business Decision or Not Worth the Paper They're Written On?

Even in the best economic times, many prudent employers utilize non-competition and confidentiality agreements to protect their hard-earned customer relationships and proprietary business information. Protecting those assets is even more important in the current economy. Unfortunately, many employers that utilize these agreements may have a false sense of security and may face a rude awakening because their agreements, as written, are not enforceable under Georgia law. Other employers may choose not to use the agreements based on a common misperception that you simply cannot enforce non-compete and other restrictive covenants in Georgia . Either scenario may leave an employer's assets unprotected and vulnerable.

The good news is that protection for those assets is available. While "one size fits all" agreements generally fail, Georgia courts will enforce properly and carefully drafted agreements. This webinar will review the various types of restrictive covenants that you should consider using to protect business and confidential information from improper use by current and former employees. We will review a number of the most common reasons agreements run afoul of Georgia law.

This hour-long session will cover non-competition; non-solicitation of customers; non-recruitment; confidentiality; and return of property provisions. If you are using agreements that have not been reviewed recently or you have considered but never utilized agreements of this type, you will gain valuable information by attending this webinar.
