What Does a Non-Compete Lawyer Do for a Miami Employer?
Aaron Resnick drafts an employer's non-compete to chapter 542, Florida Statutes. For an employee whose salary exceeds twice the county's annual mean wage, the CHOICE Act adds written advice of the right to seek counsel before execution, the agreement at least seven days before the applicable offer expires, and the employee's written acknowledgment of confidential information or customer relationships.
When an employee breaches, Aaron Resnick asks the court for a temporary injunction. His business litigation record is on the firm's representative matters page.
What Does a Non-Compete Lawyer Do for an Employee?
For an employee, Aaron Resnick reviews a non-compete before it is signed, reads a new job offer against an agreement already in force, and defends the employee when a former employer sues or asks for an injunction. He checks the duration, the territory and the definition of competing business first.

Which Court Hears a Miami Non-Compete Case?
A Miami non-compete case is usually filed in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in Miami Dade County, where a qualifying dispute may be assigned to the Complex Business Litigation Division. When federal jurisdiction applies, a party can file in, or remove to, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Aaron Resnick reads the agreement's forum clause first.
What Should I Have Ready?
Have the signed agreement, the offer letter, the salary records, the new employer's name, the customer list and how it was built, and the messages between the parties. A short timeline of who signed what, who left and when helps Aaron Resnick organize the documents and deadlines.
