FAQ
Yes, nonsolicitation agreements are still enforceable in Texas, provided they meet certain criteria: Reasonableness: The agreement must be reasonable in scope and duration.
There is no specific time period during which a non-compete agreement is valid in Texas. The duration of a non-compete agreement in Texas must be reasonable, meaning that it must be no longer than necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the employer.
You do not need a lawyer to create and sign a non-disclosure agreement. However, if the information you are trying to protect is important enough to warrant an NDA, you may want to have the document reviewed by someone with legal expertise.
Whether or not the overall agreement has a definite term, the parties' nondisclosure obligations can be stated to survive for a set period. Survival periods of one to five years are typical. The term often depends on the type of information involved and how quickly the information changes.
An NDA can last as long as the parties who sign it agree to make it last. Some NDAs may only last a year or less when information must stay confidential during a negotiation. Other NDAs may have no expiration date, lasting for the foreseeable future.
Generally, NDAs will be enforced by a court, but some statutes and public policy may prevent the enforcement of an NDA. For example, many NDAs will be voided or partially so regarding criminal acts. Often NDAs may be unenforceable unless certain procedural requirements are met.
