Those who attend will learn about state and federal trends in the enforceability of non-compete provisions; factors considered by courts in determining if a non-compete provision is valid; and basic guidelines for protecting your clients’ interests, whether seeking to protect their business interests or to retain maximum flexibility in their future careers. Those who attend will:

- Better understand current state and federal trends in enforceability of non-compete provisions, including those in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia

- Be able to develop basic guidelines for protecting client interests in negotiating non-compete provisions, whether business interests or career flexibility.
