    Reflects Oregon law as of 2026. Professional review advisable.

    Why a Oregon-specific promissory note?

    Oregon limits non-competes to 12 months and requires advance written notice or post-employment consideration. Your promissory note should reflect this — generic templates downloaded from the internet often miss Oregon-specific requirements that decide whether the contract is enforceable.

    When you're ready to sign, you'll be guided through a short questionnaire, the document is generated and reviewed for issues, then you can download a PDF, e-sign it, or send it to a counterparty for signature. Professional review is advisable for high-stakes agreements.

    What makes this enforceable in Oregon

    • Written and signed by both parties — Oregon recognizes electronic signatures under UETA / ESIGN.
    • Supported by mutual consideration (something of value exchanged on each side).
    • Clear, unambiguous terms that a Oregon court can read without rewriting.
    • Compliant with Oregon statutory requirements for financial contracts.
