Non Solicit Agreements in Massachusetts
Agreements not to solicit customers and/or employees are common in employment contracts. Typically these provisions restrict you for a period of time after your employment ends.
Historically most employment agreements included both non compete and non solicitation clauses. New law in Massachusetts has created more obstacles to enforcement of non competes. For this reason, we can expect broader use of non solicit agreements to accomplish similar goals. This may also mean that courts will look harder at non solicitation clauses than they used to.
Below is some basic information about what non solicit agreements are, how they relate to non compete agreements, and what questions you might want to raise with an employment attorney before signing one.
