From the magazine
Non-Competition Clauses often enforceable
The post-contractual prohibition of competition repeatedly leads to controversy as to whether it can be enforced at all. Courts often have to deal with this question. The opinion that a non-competition clause cannot be enforced and that it can therefore be easily signed is firmly anchored in many people's minds. However, this is a fallacy: the prohibition of competition is anything but unenforceable - as long as the requirements are fulfilled.
