This report comes from an online magazine called, “Workforce Management,” a publication geared toward management concerns. The jest of the story is that employers are being more aggressive about suing former employees regarding noncompete agreements. Read the article on lawsuits over noncompetes for yourself.
My Take: Employees need to be ready to not only defend themselves over attempts to enforce unfair and illegal noncompete agreements….they should get on the offensive and, where appropriate, consider counter claims against their former employer for interfering with their ability to earn a living and support their family.
