Pour renforcer votre pacte, précisez que la clause de non-concurrence ait une durée (ex: 12-24 mois) et un périmètre géographique/activité pour être exécutoire. Aussi, fixez le cliff à 12 mois (standard) et l’acquisition sur 48 mois – cela protège contre les départs précoces tout en motivant les associés.
