Q. Do i need to sign a release for my information to be released to my attorney?

September 7, 2012

A: You should really ask your attorney about this. That's what s/he is there for.

Assuming you are referring to healthcare information? I can tell you that there are some strong privacy laws out there to protect your private health information. Providers won't share that information without your permission which is the purpose of the release.

Q. Is an NDA a non-compete agreement?

September 7, 2012

A: Non-compete agreements are generally not legal in CA. However, there are exceptions to this rule. For instance, an employee may not misappropriate "trade secrets." The non-disclosure agreement ("NDA") that you sign may reference trade secrets.

I can't give a full analysis of your particular situation (or the “NDA”) because there are not sufficient facts. I can only give you general legal information. You should consult with an attorney.
