law library book or form needed

[infocus]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA

I am looking for a Boilerplate non disclosure/trade secret agreement. I want to
prevent a former employee or contractor from using our customer base.

What reference book in a law library do I need, or website URL could I use to get an agreement?

Sorry, I wasn't sure which forum to post, and I have an urgent need. Forgive me!

Unless they signed a non compete form when you hired them, they can probably compete with you. If your clients are not on contract with you, its a free market and they can chose to do business with whom ever they chose.

If the trade secret is something you the former employee didn't know before he came to you, and no one else in the industry knows it - you might have a case, otherwise it is a free market.
