The Law Firm Non Compete Agreement is a crucial document for legal practices operating in Saudi Arabia seeking to protect their business interests, client relationships, and confidential information. This agreement is typically implemented when hiring senior lawyers, partners, or key legal professionals who will have access to sensitive client information and business strategies. It must strictly comply with Saudi Labor Law, particularly Article 83, which requires that non-compete restrictions be limited in duration, geographic scope, and nature of work, and must be proportional to the employer's legitimate business interests. The agreement should also align with Sharia principles and Saudi Bar Association regulations regarding professional conduct. It typically includes detailed provisions on restricted activities, client non-solicitation, confidentiality obligations, and appropriate consideration for the restrictions imposed.
