Press Room Steele Sturm, PLLC achieved yet another significant victory in Texas on behalf of a number of insurance brokers that now work for the Lockton Companies, Inc., the largest privately-owned insurance brokerage company in the country.  The brokers' former employer was again Aon Consulting, Inc., the World's largest insurance brokerage firm.  At issue was the enforceability of a non-compete agreement immediately after the Texas Supreme Court' pronouncement in Alex Sheshunoff Mgmt. Servs. v. Johnson, which loosens the requirements for enforceability.  Aon, who was once again well represented by the Houston office of King & Spalding, requested that the Court enforce the non-compete agreement and issue a temporary injunction against Steele Sturm's clients.  After the temporary injunction trial and briefing submitted by the parties, the Court denied Aon's request and ruled the agreement at issue was unenforceable.

The Steele Sturm team of Howard Steele, Charles Sturm, and Kevin Kennedy won this victory for their clients.
