Utah Non-Compete Agreement FAQ
Common questions about non-compete agreements under Utah law.
What is the maximum length of a non-compete in Utah?
Utah Code § 34-51-201 caps post-employment non-compete agreements at one year from the date of separation; any provision exceeding one year is unenforceable under the Post-Employment Restrictions Act.
Will Utah courts rewrite an overly broad non-compete?
Utah courts may apply the blue-pencil doctrine to narrow overly broad restrictions on geography or activity while preserving the agreement's core intent, unlike the all-or-nothing approach used in some other states.
