Re: non compete in missouri
In Missouri, a noncompete must be limited to what is needed to protect the interest of the employer. If the employer has not contacts within the 50 mile radius, it may be defective. Also, if you signed the noncompete as part of the negotiations, it may be defective. Contact me and I will review the noncompete at no charge. My name is Fred Berger and I am listed in the telephone directory. My email is [email protected].
