You signed it years ago, buried in an offer letter you were eager to accept. Now you want to make a career move—and suddenly that document has teeth. Or maybe you're on the other side: you built something valuable, trained someone well, and now they're walking out the door with your clients and your trade secrets.
Either way, you need answers fast.
At the Law Offices of Jonathan M. Cooper, noncompete agreements, trade secret disputes, and unfair competition claims are what we do. We've seen these cases from every angle—the employee staring down a threatened TRO, the business watching a former star employee undercut them from across the street, the startup realizing its confidential information just walked out the door. We know how these fights unfold, and how to win them.
From your first conversation with us, you'll get a clear-eyed assessment of where your case stands and what a realistic outcome looks like—no guesswork and no false hope. If it's worth fighting, we'll fight hard. If there's a smarter path to resolution, we'll find it.
Time is everything in noncompete litigation. TROs don't wait. That's why we've built an office designed for speed—fully paperless, electronically filed, and streamlined in ways most New York firms haven't matched. That efficiency isn't just good for your case. It's good for your wallet.
Noncompete law in New York is nuanced, fact-specific, and constantly evolving. You need an attorney who lives in this space. We proudly serve clients across Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, Manhattan, Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Rockland, and Staten Island—and we're ready to give you a clear path forward.
Your next move matters. Let's make sure it's the right one.
