Can our firm review a non-compete agreement with less than 1 day notice? Most days that we are not in Court, one of us is available to review an agreement, please call ...

  Virginia Non-Compete Law Blog — Authority: 124
  I heard it again yesterday. PROSPECTIVE CLIENT: "They cant fire me for refusing to sign a non-compete agreement. Virginia is a Right to work state." Hmm.
