Employment Anti-Poaching Agreements: DOJ and FTC Guidelines, Antitrust Violations, Horizontal vs. Ancillary Restraints

Philadelphia Partner Matthew Fontana will speak on a panel hosted by Strafford titled “Employment Anti-Poaching Agreements: DOJ and FTC Guidelines, Antitrust Violations, Horizontal vs. Ancillary Restraints.” Matthew and the panel will discuss the current Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice (DOJ) guidance on anti-poaching; when anti-poaching provisions violate anti-trust laws; current cases the DOJ has brought against companies for anti-poaching; and how can a restraint be seen as ancillary rather than horizontal.
