Every company owns valuable tangible and intangible assets that might be illegally appropriated by a disgruntled former or current employee. These assets can be protected by Restrictive Covenant agreements which include:

• “Non-Compete” and “Non-Solicitation” agreements
• Non-Disclosure agreements (“NDAs”) including “customer list” protection
• Trade Secret agreements
• Non-Disparagement agreements
• Agreements Covering Company Owned Intellectual Property
• Agreements to Return Company Owned Tangible Property
• Agreements Limiting Employee’s Right to Sue (aka Arbitration Agreements)

This CLE program will be presented in two parts by employment law specialist Richard Waxman. The initial portion will be a topic-by-topic review of the many types of company assets that may be illegally appropriated by an employee. That will be followed by a review of a multi-topic Restrictive Covenants Agreement developed by Mr. Waxman over many years representing companies. The course will focus on the practical approach to protecting against illegal appropriation of business assets that often face companies and their lawyers…rather than typical case and statute reviews in other CLE courses.
