What it is
Non-solicit clauses are enforced more often than non-competes, and the scope is defined by lists, the clock start, and the contact definition. Employee mobility laws in several states restrict client non-solicits, and the 2026 mobility rules change who may be contacted.
What to do about it: Get the list and the clock start in writing. A new employer's own mobility rules often bind you before your former employer's clause is tested.
