A: A noncompete agreement is a contract between parties in which one party agrees not to enter into competition with the the other during or after employment. These legal contracts prevent a person or entity from entering into markets or professions considered to be in direct competition with the person or entity named in the non-compete agreement.

The first question is whether your non-compete agreement is enforceable. If it is, a number of remedies are available. Injunctions, damages and other remedies are common.
