Post-Employment Legal Restraints

Post-Employment restraints are specific terms in employment contracts or shareholder agreements that may restrict your conduct after you leave your employment.  Examples are terms which stop you from approaching your former employer’s customers or from working for a competitor for a period of time.

Such restraints can significantly impact your career path and ability to obtain new employment.  In some cases, former employees have had legal proceedings commenced against them by their former employer to enforce these restraints or seek damages for breach of them.
