Armstrong the Law Firm is a Plano, Texas firm that assists people whose businesses are the victims of trade secret theft or breach of a non-compete covenant.

“Illegal or unfair competition can take many forms,” says Plano Attorney Armstrong.  Our firm majors in obtaining damage awards for companies who have been victimized by tortious interference with contract, tortious interference with business relations, predatory business practices, and unfair competition generally.  Often, injunctive relief is necessary to stop irreparable damage to a business which is ongoing. Injunctive relief is often referred to as a “cease and desist” order by laymen.  It is particularly fitting in cases where some form of trade secret theft is going on by a former, trusted employee. Injunctions are also used to stop competition that violates valid non-compete covenenants, sometimes called noncompetition covenants.  Contrary to popular belief, such restrictions are still enforceable against employees, provided they are properly drafted in comformity with existing law. Additionally, noncompetition agreements entered as part of the sale of a business are much easier to enforce, even for periods of up to ten years.”
