BUSINESS LAW & LITIGATION
Protect Your Business, Your Ideas, and Your Future
In today’s competitive business environment, confidential information is one of your most valuable assets. At Davison Eastman Muñoz Paone, P.A., our attorneys draft, review, and enforce confidentiality agreements (NDAs) that protect your trade secrets, intellectual property, client lists, business strategies, and proprietary data. Whether you’re a startup, employer, contractor, or established corporation, we ensure your sensitive information stays protected.
Why You Need a Confidentiality Agreement
Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) are critical tools for protecting your business from information leaks, unfair competition, and loss of proprietary advantage. Whether you’re entering into a new partnership, hiring staff, or discussing product development with outside vendors, a properly drafted non-disclosure agreement:
- Legally binds the other party to confidentiality
- Defines what constitutes confidential information
- Sets clear timeframes and expectations
- Allows legal recourse if the agreement is violated
Our confidentiality agreement attorneys help businesses across New Jersey use NDAs proactively and defensively customized to fit the unique risks of each situation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Confidentiality Agreements
What is the difference between an NDA and a confidentiality agreement?
They are functionally the same. “NDA” (Non-Disclosure Agreement) and “Confidentiality Agreement” are used interchangeably to refer to legal contracts that prevent the sharing of protected information.
When should I use a confidentiality agreement?
You should use a confidentiality agreement any time you’re sharing sensitive business, financial, or proprietary information with an outside party, especially during hiring, partnerships, or product development.
Can I use an NDA template from the internet?
We don’t recommend it. A generic NDA may not be enforceable, may not reflect your business risks, and could leave you vulnerable. It’s worth investing in an agreement tailored to your needs.
What happens if someone violates an NDA?
Violating an NDA can lead to lawsuits, injunctive relief (like a court order to stop use/disclosure), and financial damages. We help clients act quickly to enforce their rights.
