Priya handles the employment side of a commercial practice: restrictive covenants, executive exits, and the trade-secret cases that tend to arrive about a fortnight afterwards. She acts for the company in most of them and for the departing executive in a few, which is the reason she is good at predicting what the other side will do.
Colorado rewrote its non-compete statute in 2022 and again in the year that followed. Priya has argued the thresholds in both directions since, and writes the firm’s note on where they have actually landed.
