New Day for Non-Competes:
Secure Your Investment in Human Capital

You invest in human capital. You share the ball, employees learn your secret playbook and leverage your goodwill. Texas courts enforce non-competes to keep your secret playbook out of your competitors' hands, but Marsh v. Cook breaks new ground. Non-competes now prevent your goodwill from walking out the door with a key employee. We'll talk it out.

Learning Objectives:
- Appreciate the board-level interest in an appropriate non-compete program protecting your competitive edge in intellectual property and customer goodwill.

- See how the Texas Supreme Court, in Marsh v. Cook, just gave companies a new arsenal to enforce non-compete and non-solicit agreements.

- Discuss how non-competes and non-solicits protect your investment in human capital from competitors poaching key employees.

- Learn how to on-board employees without triggering lawsuits from ex-employers.

Morgan Culbreth is Alan's colleague. She practiced for several years with a national labor and employment law firm, then joined The Bush Law Firm. Like Alan, don't let her smile fool you. She's tough.
