A noncompete agreement limits what a former employee can do after leaving your business. A Florida court will not enforce one unless it is in writing, signed by the worker, and tied to a legitimate business interest. A noncompete agreement attorney for a Florida employer looks first to Florida’s restrictive covenant statute, which provides that a court shall not enforce a restrictive covenant unless it is set forth in a writing signed by the person against whom enforcement is sought. This page explains how that statute works and what employers should do before a key worker resigns. Kristina E. Wilson is the responsible lawyer for this page, and KEW Legal has offices in Coral Gables and Sunny Isles Beach.<\/p>\n

What a Noncompete and Confidentiality Agreement Does for a Florida Employer<\/h2>\n

A noncompete stops a worker from competing with you. A non-solicitation covenant stops them from pulling away clients or staff. A confidentiality agreement protects private information. Each one guards a different interest, so each needs its own wording.<\/p>\n
