The Interplay of Non-Compete Clauses and Trade Secret Protection: Insights from Hayley Paige G. v. J

In December 2020, a legal dispute arose between wedding dress designer Hayley Paige Gutman and JLM Couture, her employer and the owner of the Hayley Paige brand. The dispute encompasses allegations of trademark infringement, dilution, unfair competition, breach of contract, and conversion. It revolves around the exclusive rights to the "Hayley Paige" name as outlined in Gutman's 2011 employment agreement and seeks to enforce the non-compete clause in her contract.
