NDAs with employees are generally legal in Illinois. However, there are certain limits employers need to be aware of, and several best practices that will help ensure your agreement is immune from challenge in court.

At the top, there are three types, unilateral, bilateral, and multilateral NDAs. The rest of the specific NDA types fall under these three categories. Most are based on who has to sign the NDA. Not all NDAs are created equally, and they can only demand so much secrecy from strangers when compared to their employees.

NDAs are enforceable when they are signed — if they are properly drafted and executed. NDAs are enforceable once signed, provided they have been drafted and executed properly. Unilateral NDAs need only the signature of the receiving party, whereas mutual non-disclosure agreements need the signatures of both parties.

In Illinois, the confidentiality obligations are finite. Your NDA may not continue indefinitely. To ensure your agreement is enforceable, add a reasonable time limit to the confidentiality obligation. This is typically “during the course of employment” or for a short time period thereafter.

If you need an NDA, looking at templates online isn't a bad place to start, but ideally you should work with a lawyer who can write a simple NDA for you or tweak the one you have. You may be able to find someone in your community who can do it for a few hundred bucks.
