A Lawyer On Your Side Who Knows The Laws

Without a full knowledge of the state and federal laws that dictate what you can and cannot do, any employment contracts you create may be inherently invalid. With Mr. Copeland’s eye for detail and full knowledge of the laws, you can ensure that contracts such as new hire contracts, non-compete agreements and confidentiality agreements are in compliance with the laws.

Noncompete Agreements

When you present a non-compete agreement to an employee, he or she may not fully understand the terms by which they are bound. It is important that the agreement be written as straightforwardly as possible, but still protect your business. While a non-compete can be drafted to be very limiting or very broad, our firm can advise you on which approach would be best based on your business’s needs and the industry that you serve.
