Are Non-compete Agreements Enforceable If I Have Been Terminated?

While non-compete agreements are legal in Texas, their validity is mostly determined by whether they are reasonable in terms of scope, duration, and geographical limitation. Enforcing a non-compete agreement after the termination of an employee is dependent on several factors, including:

The wording of the agreement
The employee's position
The reason for termination

If the release was due to reasons beyond the employee’s control, such as layoffs or downsizing, the courts may be more inclined to view the non-compete as unenforceable. In contrast, if the employee voluntarily left their position, the agreement’s enforceability may be preserved, especially if the terms are reasonable.
