Confidentiality and competition guidance from your High Wycombe Solicitors

It is understandable that you will want to protect your company’s trade secrets and confidential information against potential harmful activities of employees and ex-employees. But this is a complex area of employment law.

You will have protection whilst your employees are still working with you, but what about when they leave? This is where your protection will lessen. Any restrictive covenants put in place should be carefully worded, so they don’t restrict an individual’s freedom, but your trade secrets and information is protected.

As experienced employment law solicitors, we work with restrictive covenants and are able to successfully advise our clients on precisely what they should be doing to protect their business interests.

Testimonials

"Any employer dispute is worrying and can cause sleepless nights as it did with me, but Catherine from day one, took me under her with sound and sane advice that met with legal obligations and the current law to help take away or at least give me confidence that things were going to be ok as I had done nothing wrong. Three face to face meetings along, several emails and phone calls and we were getting closer to resolution. Throughout the whole process I was treated with professionalism and a can do attitude and with a final solution that was more than I could hope for on day one when my world was collapsing around me, I would certainly recommend Catherine Herries-Smith for any employment law issues."

"All I can say is you're a star and have always had my best interest at heart. Thank you for everything you've done."
