Restrictive covenants, such as non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements, can be a valuable tool for businesses to protect their interests when an employee leaves the company.
This program, presented by Shawn Fabian of Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP, discusses the key considerations involved in drafting and enforcing restrictive covenants in Illinois, as well as trade secret misappropriation claims, which are often related to restrictive covenant disputes.

This is an area of law I have worked in for 40 years. Generally lawyers do not understand its complexity. The speaker did and expressed himself well. He is a comfortable speaker and obviously the firm is very organized on this issue. For me the update of newer law was good. Well done.
