As one recent Wall Street Journal article noted, the use of noncompete agreements is clearly on the rise and so is the amount of litigation related to them and trade secret protection generally. From the emergence of a new line of cases across the country heavily favoring the use of noncompete restrictions in incentive compensation plans, 2014 was a year of many significant new developments.

Both employers looking for contractual options to protect themselves against unfair competition and employers hiring from competitors face a myriad of new developments in the law and in litigation strategies. No employer operating in this increasingly litigious and competitive environment can afford to remain uninformed on these new developments.

Please join us for a limited-invitation briefing that is designed to give in-house counsel and high-level human resource professionals the tools to protect your company's business in this challenging new environment.

This complimentary event will include a checklist of new developments, protection options, and litigation strategies for you to take back to your office and consider.

Our speakers will discuss:

  • An update on new developments in DC, MD, VA and across the county
  • Creative new contract and policy approaches being used to address unfair competition and trade secret protection
  • Litigation strategies to help you get the upper hand on offense or defense
  • Tips for hiring safely from competitors and conducting due diligence in the new era
