Key Contract Rules in Minnesota

Non-Compete Agreements

Minnesota rule: Banned (2023)

Non-compete agreements restrict your ability to work for competitors after leaving a job. In Minnesota, these clauses are banned (2023). ClauseBoard flags overly broad non-competes and provides specific negotiation language based on Minnesota law.

Security Deposits

Minnesota limit: No statutory limit

Security deposit rules vary significantly by state. In Minnesota, the limit is no statutory limit. ClauseBoard checks your lease's deposit terms against Minnesota's statutory limits and identifies any violations.

At-Will Employment

Minnesota: Yes

Most employment in Minnesota is at-will, meaning either party can end the relationship at any time. However, exceptions exist for discrimination, retaliation, and implied contracts.

What Makes Minnesota Different

Minnesota banned most non-compete agreements effective July 1, 2023. One of only a few states to follow California's approach.
