Turnover is a fact of life for every business, especially in an \u201cat-will\u201d state like Florida, which permits employees and employers alike to easily terminate their relationship. While employees come and go with ease, the skills and knowledge they gain should not: Noncompete Agreements serve as a vital means of protecting your business interests without infringing an employee\u2019s right to work where they please.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As one of the few states to recognize Noncompete Agreements for a reasonable period of time, it is vital for Florida businesses to enlist in-state attorneys. Jurado & Associates<\/a> is a South Florida law firm with the experience and expertise to draft these critical legal instruments. We know how to make your Noncompete Agreement comply with Florida\u2019s requirements as well as your own best interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Until 1996, Noncompete Agreements could not be executed in Florida because they were considered an invalid and unfair restriction on the commercial rights of employees. With the implementation of Section 542.335 of the Florida Statutes, Noncompete Agreements can now be enforced\u2014provided they meet a standard of \u201creasonableness\u201d in terms of time, area, and scope of restriction. An agreement<\/a> found lacking in any of these areas will be deemed unenforceable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, what makes a Noncompete Agreement reasonable? Almost three decades of caselaw has established the following standard:<\/p>\n\n\n\n These are just some of the elements of an effective and enforceable Noncompete Agreement. You must also take into account how violations will be resolved or addressed, the scope of monetary damages, and how the agreement will be enforced among different classes of employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Drafting a valid Noncompete Agreement is far from an exact science: It requires a nuanced but precise grasp of legal language. Any ambiguities or faulty provisions could render it unforceable\u2014and thereby leave your business vulnerable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not leave it to chance: Hire a law firm run by business owners, for business owners.
