Episode 65: How an Employer Can Enforce a Non-Compete Agreement in Colorado

Episode Summary

Special guest John Sauer joins Karl Frank, CFP and Nathan Merrill and teaches us about the new gotcha laws that Colorado employers need to obey if they want to use a non-compete agreement for hiring employees. In this episode, John teaches us how employers can enforce a non-compete agreement under Colorado’s new laws. ● What is the usual manner in which a non-compete agreement is enforced. ● How does a temporary restraining order expedite the process? ● How long does this take and how much does it cost? ● What is the usual response from a former employee, and what can the employer do maximize the chance of success? ● Employers may face civil and criminal charges for attempting to enforce invalid non-compete agreements! John warns, “Before you throw the bomb, you better make sure you are bulletproof.” As an employment attorney, John Sauer deals with 10 or or more non-compete agreements on any given week. This podcast gives employers a quick way to plan for the unexpected and avoid confusion in the event that a non-compete agreement needs to be enforced.
