Vedder Price successfully defended a major financial institution and several of its employees in a high-stakes Delaware Court of Chancery action seeking to block their new employment and client relationships. After an expedited schedule and a two-day evidentiary hearing, the Court denied the plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction in its entirety, agreeing with Vedder’s arguments that the contractual provisions at issue were overbroad and unenforceable and that the defendants’ actions were lawful and ethical.
