BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Guide covers noncompete and trade secrets laws for all 50 states

Chicago-based law firm Seyfarth Shaw has released a guide to the 50 states’ noncompete and trade secrets laws.

The free 2014-15 edition of “50 State Desktop Reference: What Employers Need to Know About Non-Compete and Trade Secrets Law” e-book provides information on laws related to the use of employee restrictive covenants and intellectual capital protection in each state.

“This booklet will serve as a useful and informative tool to help the human resources professional, in-house counsel, or company executive navigate this complex environment of law to protect their most valuable and confidential assets,” said co-author Michael Wexler, a Chicago-based Seyfarth partner.

Robert Milligan, a partner in Seyfarth’s Los Angeles office, is the other co-author. The two attorneys co-chair the firm’s trade secrets, computer fraud and non-competes practice group.

Copies of the reference are available here.
