Einbinder & Dunn, LLP is committed to providing high-quality, cost-effective solutions for all of its clients' legal problems. The partners and their experienced staff of associates take a hands-on approach to each matter. The attorneys are responsive and proactive, working only in each client's best interest to achieve superior results.

Non-Compete & Non-Solicitation Agreements

Representing Clients In Matters Relating to Restrictive Covenants,
Non-Competes and Non-Solicitation Agreements

Covenants not to compete or engage in certain other activities can provide business owners and employers with powerful tools for protecting a wide range of vital business assets, including clients, customers, ideas and trade secrets. On the other side of the spectrum, enforcement of a non-compete can put companies out of business and individuals out of work. As a result, the validity of non-compete agreements is often the subject of contentious litigation.

Disputes involving non-compete agreements and other restrictive covenants have been a significant part of Einbinder & Dunn's commercial litigation practice since the partners first joined together in 1990. In the years since, the firm's attorneys have negotiated, argued and advocated on behalf of clients ranging from individual business owners, professionals, executives and former employees to companies that are among the largest in their respective industries.

This broad base of experience with non-compete agreement disputes gives Einbinder & Dunn a unique perspective and enables the firm to resolve complex employment law disputes. Clients on either side of any non-compete agreement or non-solicitation dispute also benefit from the firm's experience with business and franchise law; from its talent for anticipating an opponent's next moves, and from the hands-on style, accessibility and responsiveness of the firm's partners.

The firm's practice of exploring both traditional and new, more creative solutions to employment and non-compete agreement disputes is yet another way in which the firm stands apart from its competitors.

Einbinder & Dunn also acts as local counsel for out-of-state law firms with complex litigation pending in the state or federal courts of New York.
