Dallas, Texas Non-Compete Lawyer Describes the Documents an Employee Should Keep in a Personal Employment File
When a Texas employee subject to a non-compete covenant prepares to leave an employer, the employee may need advice regarding the exact boundaries of the non-compete agreement. Speaking with Texas employment law counsel should provide the employee with clarification regarding the acts that would cross the line into prohibited competitive conduct.
When asked to advise a client regarding non-compete obligations, the first thing an employment lawyer will ask for are the documents that set out the employee’s obligations to the employer. An employee should always keep a copy of these documents in a home filing system. Asking a current employer for employment-related documents raises a huge red flag!
An employee should keep and be able to easily access a copy of:
• The current employment agreement and any previous versions;
• Equity agreements;
• Incentive plan agreements;
• Employee handbook;
• Any separate, legally binding documents, such as confidentiality agreements, non-solicitation agreements, or nondisclosure agreements; and
• Any agreements still in effect from a previous employment relationship.
Once the employment lawyer has these documents in hand, he can begin his analysis of the employee’s rights and obligations. For more information, contact Dallas non-compete lawyer Keith Clouse at Clouse Dunn LLP via email at info@clousedunn.com or telephone at 214 220 3888.
