American Arbitration Association: Employee Mobility, Non-Competes, and Other Employment Agreements – What You Need to Know About New Federal and State Developments

Daniel Levy, Member of the Firm, co-presents "Employee Mobility, Non-Competes, and Other Employment Agreements: What You Need to Know About New Federal and State Developments," a webinar hosted by the American Arbitration Association.

The non-competes area — which has been a primary focus for employment, litigation, and corporate lawyers — is now more active than ever, with new activity from the FTC, state legislatures, arbitration claimants, and litigation plaintiffs. Government activity has generally fostered private action, and so it is especially notable that non-competes are among the few regulatory areas in which the Trump Administration has announced it wants to be more active than prior administrations. It has been actively filing cases challenging non-competes (rather than using rulemaking). Also, 38 states have banned or restricted non-competes, and other states, including New York, are actively considering such legislation. The session will provide an in-depth analysis of these new developments, as well as a review of how businesses are using alternatives, such as non-solicitation and trade secret agreements, and NDAs.
