Washington Employment Agreements – Fact or Fiction? Join Amy Alexander with Stokes Lawrence’s Employment Law group on April 28th to talk about common myths and misconceptions about non-competes, non-solicitations, non-disparagements, and other restrictive covenants in employment agreements. Two years after the Washington legislature’s significant restrictions on the use of non-competes, we’ll share the best practices and pitfalls that are beginning to emerge. We’ll also discuss the brand-new Silenced No More Act and how it will change the way all employers use confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions in their employment and severance agreements.Topics covered:Do I need employment agreements for my employees?Are non-competes even enforceable in Washington anymore?My company didn’t adjust our employment agreements two years ago, and my employee told me they’re illegal. What do I do?Are non-disparagement provisions going away now, too?
