Proactive Guidance on Post-Employment Restrictions

Bassford Remele’s Restrictive Covenants practice provides employers and employees with thoughtful, proactive guidance on navigating the complexities of post-employment restrictions. We work closely with clients to draft, review, and negotiate agreements that are compliant, enforceable, and tailored to protect legitimate business interests while supporting practical workforce needs.

For more than 30 years, our team has helped organizations across industries—from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies—understand the evolving legal landscape surrounding restrictive covenants. Our deep knowledge of employment law, combined with practical business insight, allows us to develop strategies to minimize risk, safeguard confidential information, and address unfair competition concerns before they escalate into disputes.

Understanding that the best outcomes often come from careful planning, we help clients evaluate restrictions at the outset of employment, during transitions, or in connection with changing business needs. By providing clear, actionable advice, we equip clients to face potential challenges with confidence and avoid costly litigation whenever possible.
