Confidentiality Agreement Lawyers in Phoenix — Helping Clients Protect Themselves and Sensitive Information

People often speak of a time when an old-fashioned handshake was enough to secure a promise. In reality, this moment in time never really existed. From product research to business mergers, there has always been a need to protect sensitive information. This necessity is why non-disclosure contracts exist. If you need assistance with this legal necessity, a confidentiality agreement lawyer in Phoenix can help.

At Resolvere Law, PLLC, our Arizona contract attorneys have extensive experience drafting, enforcing, and litigating these agreements. We understand that disclosure of sensitive or confidential information can be devastating. However, we also recognize that some of these agreements are equitably unfair or unenforceable. Thanks to our varied experience, we can help in either of these situations.

Contact our Phoenix confidentiality agreement lawyers today for a free consultation.

Do You Need an Attorney for Drafting a Confidentiality Agreement?

Whether you’re entering a new business/employee relationship, working with intellectual property, or engaged in any other activity that requires a level of discretion, a confidentiality agreement can prove invaluable. These contracts — also known as non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) — can contain a wide variety of provisions. Since one party is dictating the terms of these contracts, though, do they really need an attorney’s input?

While hiring a confidentiality agreement lawyer isn’t technically required, failing to do so can prove disastrous. The simple fact is that various laws directly affect how these contracts work. Simple mistakes on your part can invalidate an agreement. In some cases, provisions may even violate the law. And if you’re considering using a DIY legal service, don’t assume that you’ll avoid such issues. Legal experts constantly warn about the dangers of these websites.

Whether you’re drafting an NDA, need help enforcing one, or are concerned the contract may violate your rights, speaking with a legal professional is likely in your best interest.

What Are Some Common Non-disclosure Agreement Mistakes?

The best way to avoid mistakes with confidentiality agreements is to understand the most common missteps. When parties to these contracts forego legal advice, it’s easy to stumble into a pitfall. If your NDAs include one of the following mistakes, it might not be too late to correct the problem. If you can avoid them from the start, however, you’ll be on much more solid legal ground.

  • Using vague language: Confidentiality agreements must be clear and avoid overly broad language.
  • Insufficient definitions: These contracts must have clear definitions of terms. This is particularly important when defining the parties to the contract.
  • Lack of consideration: NDAs typically have to include consideration — an exchange of value — for them to be enforceable.
  • Inadequate termination/duration provisions: These agreements must clearly specify contract duration, obligations, and termination circumstances.
  • Lack of breach remedies: An NDA really has no teeth if provisions aren’t included that outline the remedies available for a breach of contract.

These mistakes are just the tip of the iceberg. Even when considering the potential consequences of these errors, it’s still more disastrous to create and enter into these contracts without legal review. Having a Phoenix confidentiality agreement lawyer examine your contract can ensure you avoid such mistakes. Additionally, attorney scrutinization prior to signing can help you understand what rights you’re giving up.
Contact Resolvere Law today to avoid these and other mistakes.

What Can You Do About a Confidentiality Agreement Violation?

If people could wholeheartedly be trusted with sensitive information, non-disclosure agreements would not be necessary. Unfortunately, there are still those who disclose such information even after signing such a contract. When this happens, it’s important for you to take action. Start by reviewing the contract, documenting the violation, and discussing potential resolutions with the violating party.
In many situations, this could clear up issues without going any further. However, this isn’t always the case. If the violation has resulted in harm or the other party refuses to cease their violation, it’s contingent on you to enforce the agreement. This can involve a legal claim (i.e., attempts to recover financial compensation) or an equitable claim (i.e., seeking injunctions or other equitable remedies).
Regardless of the circumstances of your case, a confidentiality agreement attorney in Phoenix may be able to assist.
