In our heavily regulated business climate, every company should have a basic set of policies that its employees can turn to for guidance on a regular basis. Well drafted policies inform everyone of the rules, and protect your clients from liability-poorly drafted ones can create more litigation and regulatory problems than they fix. Learn how to advise your clients on the appropriate topics for policies, and the legal ramifications of publishing and communicating these policies. In-house practitioners will share their sample policies and provide valuable insights for getting these adopted and used by the businesses.
Confidentiality and non-compete agreements are some of the most common agreements faced by in-house law departments. Learn the law involved in these types of agreements and how the size of your organization and the type of business determines how and when it’s best to use these instruments. Learn about the different types of confidentiality and non-compete agreements and when should they be used, how to choose the right format and key clauses for the job, what barriers there are to enforcement, what other companies have done to manage the never ending flow of requests to review non-disclosure agreements, and how to ensure compliance.
