Question: How can a business owner enforce a non-compete agreement against a former employee who started a competing business while still employed?
Answer: In a case involving a breach of a valid non-compete agreement where an employee started a competing business while still employed, you may consider sending a formalized demand letter, demanding that the other party cease behavior that is in violation of the non-compete agreement. If you'd like to book a call with an attorney to discuss your situation, or for help determining if your contract is valid, contact Cape Law to see if services are offered in your jurisdiction.
