Nevada legal context

Nevada adopted the Uniform Trade Secrets Act at NRS §§ 600A.010–600A.100. Nevada's restrictive-covenant statute (NRS § 613.195, amended in 2021) requires non-competes to be supported by valuable consideration, narrowly tailored, and not impose hardship; courts must blue-pencil overbroad provisions. NRS § 613.195 also bans non-competes for hourly-wage workers.
