Employers increasingly look to competitors when recruiting experienced talent — but these hiring decisions can carry significant legal risk. From trade secret misappropriation to claims involving restrictive covenants and fiduciary breaches, hiring from a competitor can trigger costly litigation. On August 28, Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd’s Denny Major presented an employment law webinar discussing these risks and considerations.

Key topics included:

  • High-profile verdicts and recent enforcement trends against hiring employers
  • Legal exposure tied to non-compete and non-solicitation agreements
  • Strategies to mitigate risk during recruitment, interviewing and onboarding
  • Practical guidance for HR leaders, legal departments and hiring managers
