Miami Employment Attorneys, Franchise Law & Business Litigators

In Florida, it is possible to get out of a non-compete agreement, but the ability to do so depends on various factors, including the specific terms of the agreement and the circumstances surrounding its creation and enforcement. Florida law generally favors the enforcement of non-compete agreements, but it does impose certain limitations to ensure they are reasonable and protect the rights of employees. If the non-compete agreement is found to be overly broad, excessively restrictive, or lacks a legitimate business interest, it may be deemed unenforceable by a court.

To get out of a non-compete agreement in Florida, it is advisable to consult with an experienced non-compete attorney who can carefully review the agreement, assess its enforceability, and identify potential grounds for challenging its validity. 

Our Miami non-compete attorneys can help you evaluate factors such as the agreement’s duration, geographical scope, and the extent of restrictions placed on the employee’s ability to work in a particular industry or location. We then develop a legal strategy to negotiate with your employer or former employer or, if necessary, seek a declaratory judgment in court to have the non-compete agreement declared unenforceable or modified to be more reasonable.

It’s important to note that each case is unique, and the outcome will depend on the specific circumstances involved. Therefore, consulting with our knowledgeable Miami non-compete attorneys will help you understand the options available and pursue the best course of action to potentially get out of a non-compete agreement in Florida.

In Florida, the timing of commission payments is generally determined by the terms of the commission agreement between the employer and the employee. If the agreement specifies a particular payment schedule or condition, both parties are expected to adhere to those terms. However, in the absence of a specific agreement, Florida law requires employers to pay commissions within a reasonable time after they become due and payable.

Under Florida Statute Section 686.201, if there is no explicit agreement regarding commission payment, commissions must be paid within 30 days after termination of employment. This means that once an employee has fulfilled the requirements to earn a commission, such as completing a sale or meeting a performance target, the employer has 30 days after termination to compensate the employee. Failure to pay commissions within the required time frame may constitute a violation of Florida labor laws, and employees may have legal recourse to seek payment of their commissions, including filing a wage claim or pursuing a civil lawsuit against the employer. It is advisable for both employers and employees to clearly outline the commission payment terms in writing to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes in the future.

In Florida, whether an employer can keep an employee’s commission after they quit generally depends on the terms of the commission agreement and any applicable employment contracts or company policies. If the agreement or policy explicitly states that commissions are forfeited upon termination or resignation, the employer may be able to retain the unpaid commissions. However, if there is no clear provision addressing this issue, Florida law generally requires employers to pay commissions that have been earned by the employee.
