When an individual takes a new position, his or her employer may require you to sign a non-compete agreement or other restrictive covenant. Many employers require these types of agreements in order to protect their own interests with regard to trade secrets, intellectual property or other considerations. When an employee leaves the company, these restrictive covenants and non-competes often lead to disputes over the rights of the parties.
