Employment Contracts, Noncompete Covenants And Severance Agreements

Employer-Employee Contracts And Agreements

To be valid in Arizona, employment contracts and agreements must meet certain conditions. For example, a noncompete agreement must not violate public policy.

Noncompete and nondisclosure agreements must be drafted carefully, keeping in mind existing Arizona case law concerning the duration, geographical reach and the activity the agreement restricts. Failure to do so could result in a lawsuit.

Services For Employers And Employees

We can draft such a contract or agreement or negotiate changes in proposed documents that better serve to protect your interests. We can also provide an opinion regarding the enforceability of an employer-employee contract or agreement.

Employees often perceive that they are at a disadvantage vis-à-vis employers or potential employers. If you are an individual or an employer entering into an employment relationship, we can draft or review an employment contract. If you are leaving an employment relationship, we can draft and negotiate a severance agreement or other contracts and agreements to protect your interests.

As an employer, you may have valuable intangible assets in the form of customer lists, trade secrets and other types of intellectual property. These assets are vulnerable to theft by employees, contractors and other parties. We can draft a nondisclosure agreement that protects your assets and provides potential remedies should those assets be stolen.
