Employment Practice Chair Michael Arnold was quoted by SHRM in an article about the FTC’s ban on noncompetes being struck down by a federal court last week. 

Discussing the possible next steps for employers, he says: “Employers looking to consider alternatives have a multitude of options at their disposal to prevent post-employment unfair competition, including by using confidentiality, trade secret, and invention assignment agreements, implementing broad trade secret protection programs, and entering into appropriately tailored nonsolicitation agreements.”
