Non-Compete Agreements

Before you sign — or before you leave — understand what you are actually bound by. We help Texas employees read the fine print and push back on overreaching restrictions.

Non-competes are not automatically enforceable

In Texas, a non-compete must meet specific legal requirements to be enforceable — including being tied to an otherwise enforceable agreement and being reasonable in time, geographic area, and the scope of activity it restricts. Many agreements employers ask workers to sign are broader than the law will actually enforce.

Whether you are weighing a new offer, planning a departure, or already facing a threat from a former employer, the wording of your agreement — and the circumstances around it — matter enormously.

How we help

01
Review & plain-English explanation
We tell you what your agreement actually restricts, and how much of it is likely enforceable.
02
Negotiation
Often the best outcome is a narrowed restriction or a clean release — negotiated before a dispute hardens.
03
Litigation & defense
If a former employer sues or threatens to, we defend your right to earn a living.

We also review the severance and restrictive-covenant terms that frequently travel with these agreements, so you understand the whole picture before you sign.
