PARTNER RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS ADVICE

We have market leading experience providing restrictive covenants advice for partners. We advise firms who wish to enforce those restrictions, or firms who wish to hire partners who are subject to restrictions.

We advise on the likely enforceability or otherwise of partner restrictive covenants, the tactical handling and available approaches and also how such matters tend to be resolved in practice.

We have extensive experience in advising on cross-border restrictive covenant matters where, for example, English law restrictions may conflict with foreign constitutional law or other local laws on restraint of trade, or with overseas professional conduct and ethics rules. We regularly work with overseas lawyers who are expert in providing advice on restrictive covenants.

For more information, please Contact David Fisher or Clare Murray for more information.
