Definition and Examples
- Definition
- A restrictive covenant, in property law, is a clause in a contract or deed that limits what the owner of the property can do with it, often to preserve the value and enjoyment of adjoining properties. In employment law, it refers to an agreement, typically between an employer and employee, that restricts the employee's actions post-employment, such as prohibiting competition or solicitation of clients.
