it is complete and agreed to by all parties. Anything else is not a contract. You really can’t have it both ways.

Just wondered how these contracts work and how enforcable they are. Is there any loop holes to them. Thank You

Depends on the scope of the non-compete clause, duration, area, and the type of business. It also depends on the state, since some state laws (particularly CA) are against these as a matter of public policy. Ultimately, a Judge will decide the enforceability of a non-compete clause.

A lot of investors have tried to make their “proteges” sign non-compete clauses about investing. This would never fly…
