By Stark & Stark
Thomas B. Lewis, Chair of Stark & Stark's Employment Group, and Mark F. Kowal, member of Stark & Stark's Employment Group, authored the article, Enforceable Non-Compete Agreements: How Employers Can Adequately Define and Protect Their Legitimate Business Interests, for the March 29, 2010 edition of the New Jersey Law Journal.
The article discusses the necessity of a protectable business interest, how and when to enforce a non-compete, the necessity of consideration in non-competes, attorneys fees in non-competes, and the 'blue pencil' (the courts ability to strike or modify overbroad or vague provisions from the agreement and enforce the other terms).
