No. 24-1728
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
August 12, 2025
PUBLISHED
Argued: May 9, 2025 Decided: August 12, 2025
Before QUATTLEBAUM, RUSHING and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed in part and vacated in part by published opinion. Judge Quattlebaum wrote the opinion, in which Judge Rushing and Judge Heytens joined.
QUATTLEBAUM, Circuit Judge:
Several employees of a financial services firm left to start a competing firm and then began contacting their former clients. But they had signed employment agreements with the former employer prohibiting the solicitation of clients and use of confidential client information. The former employees, however, thought they had an out. Their old firm, like many in the financial services field, had agreed to an industry-wide protocol under which their employees could join another firm and contact former clients if they followed certain procedures. Unfortunately for the former employees, their employment agreements also said their contractual non-solicitation and confidentiality obligations, not the protocol, controlled.
The former firm sued its former employees and their newly created firm, and moved for a preliminary injunction barring any contact between defendants and their former clients and any use of the old firm‘s confidential information. The district court granted the injunction, finding that the former employer showed a strong likelihood of success on the merits of its violation of trade secrets claims against all defendants whether the employment agreements or the protocol controlled. According to the district court, even under the protocol, defendants were not permitted to “raid” the former firm. For the reasons set forth below, we agree the old firm is likely to succeed on the merits of those claims against the former employees, but only under the employment agreements. The new firm itself, however, is not a party to those agreements, nor did it raid the former firm as that term is ordinarily understood. So, the district court erred in issuing an injunction against the new firm. We therefore affirm in part and vacate in part.
I.
Formed in 2009, Salomon & Ludwin, LLC is a wealth management firm based in Richmond, Virginia. Salomon hired Jeremiah Winters, Catherine Atwood, Jennifer Thompson and Abbey Sorensen between 2009 and 2017. Winters and Atwood were financial advisors, and Thompson and Sorensen were operational professionals.
All of Salomon‘s employees generally have access to proprietary client informatiоn. Salomon takes several steps to protect this proprietary information. Most significantly, it requires financial advisors, like Winters and Atwood, to sign a Financial Services Professional Employment Agreement. And it requires operational professionals, like Thompson and Sorensen, to sign an Administrative Professional Employment Agreement. Since the relevant provisions of both agreements are largely identical, we will use the term “Agreement” to refer to both. Winters, Atwood, Thompson and Sorensen signed these Agreements in March 2022.
The Agreements contain a number of provisions that protect Salomon. They provide
On top of that, attached to each Agreement is a confidentiality agreement, which prohibits an employee from disclosing Salomon‘s trade secrets and client information. The confidentiality agreement also states that Salomon will suffer irreparable harm in the event of a breach of confidentiality.
Complicating these provisions, Salomon signed on to an industry-wide document called the Protocol for Broker Recruiting. The Protocol is a separate voluntary agreement among firms in the financial services industry that allows a departing financial advisor, with written notice, to take certain client information with them when leaving one member-firm to join another member-firm. It provides:
The principal goal of the following protocol is to further the clients’ interests of privacy and freedom of choice in connection with the movement of their Registered Representatives (“RRs“) between firms. If departing RRs and their new firm follow this protocol, neither the departing RR nor the firm that he or she joins would have any monetary or other liability to the firm that the RR left by reason of the RR taking the information identified below or the solicitation of the clients serviced by the RR at his or her prior firm, provided, however, that this protocol does not bar or otherwise affect the ability of the prior firm to bring an action against the new firm for “raiding.” The signatories to this protocol agree to implement and adhere to it in good faith.
J.A. 250. So long as a financial advisor complies, the Protocol shields both the departing financial advisor and the new member-firm from liability.
Complicating things a bit more, the Agreements address the Protocol, stating that:
The parties to this agreement acknowledge that [Salomon] is not part of or subject to Broker Protocol. In the event [Salomon] elects to join the Broker Protocol, the parties further agree that this agreement shall take precedence over and shall apply, regardless of the terms of the Protocol for Broker Recruiting and that this agreement shall apply and control in the event that any term of this agreement conflicts with any term of the Protocol for Broker Recruiting.
J.A. 56, 71, 85, 99 (capitalization altered). But this provision appears outdated because Salomon joined the Protocol in March 2018—long before Winters, Atwood, Thompson and Sorensen executed these Agreements.
While still employed at Salomon in the spring of 2024, Winters, Atwood, Thompson and Sorensen decided tо leave Salomon and found their own firm. They set up a business known as Albero Advisors, LLC. A month and a half later, they resigned from Salomon. That same day, Albero Advisors joined the Protocol. According to Winters and Atwood, their resignation letters listed the clients they served at Salomon, including client names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses and account titles, all in accordance with the Protocol. At the same time, the departing employees began contacting Salomon‘s clients, informing them of their new endeavor and stating that they would be in touch. The result—Salomon lost over four hundred accounts representing hundreds of millions of dollars in client assets.
Salomon then moved for and obtained a preliminary injunction. As to the likelihood of success on the merits of Salomon‘s claims, the district court found no dispute that Salomon‘s client information likely constituted a trade secret and that defendants obtained that information through their relationship with Salomon.1 Thus, in the absence of the Protocol, Salomon had shown a strong likelihood of success on the merits.2 But because both Salomon and Founders Grove were members of the Protocol—which permits financial advisors to leave their firms with certain information—the district court determined that it had to consider the impact of the Protocol. However, the district court held that even if the Protocol controlled over the Agreements, the raiding exception to the Protocol applied because defendants had likely raided Salomon. Then, the district court found Salomon established it was likely to suffer irreparable harm, relying on Salomon‘s evidence regarding its business losses and Fourth Circuit precedent that holds the loss of goodwill, customers and the ability to attract new сustomers may entitle a party to injunctive relief. The court then found the balance of equities and public interest cut in
favor of granting injunctive relief. Thus, the district court granted Salomon a preliminary injunction, and defendants timely appealed.3
II.
“[P]reliminary injunctions are extraordinary remedies involving the exercise of very far-reaching power to be granted only sparingly and in limited circumstances . . . .” Direx Israel, Ltd. v. Breakthrough Med. Corp., 952 F.2d 802, 816 (4th Cir. 1991) (internal quotation marks omitted). To prevail, a party must show: (1) likelihood of success on the merits; (2) likelihood of irreparable harm absent preliminary relief; (3) equity favors granting preliminary relief; and (4) preliminary relief is in the public interest. See Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20 (2008).
We review a district court‘s grant or denial of a preliminary injunction for abuse of discretion. See Direx, 952 F.2d at 814. Although we may not reweigh evidence the district court considered, a clear error in factual findings or a mistake of law merits reversal. See Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC v. 6.56 Acres of Land, Owned by Sandra Townes Powell, 915 F.3d 197, 213 (4th Cir. 2019). We review de novo whether there has been a mistake of law. See Nelson-Salabes, Inc. v. Morningside Dev., LLC, 284 F.3d 505, 512 (4th Cir. 2002).
Defendants argue that the court erred in determining that if the Protocol controlled, defendants’ conduct constituted raiding. We agree the court incorrectly interpreted raiding. But as to the former employees, we nevertheless affirm because the Agreements controlled
over the Protocol and prohibited their conduct. As to Founders Grove, we vacate the injunction because it was not a party to the Agreements.
A. The Protocol
In determining that Salomon was likely to succeed in showing defendants’ conduct constituted raiding under the Protocol, the district court first had to determine what that term meant. Without a definition in the Protocol or established case law, it relied on the parties’ competing experts to define raiding. It ultimately settled on a definition of a severe economic impact on the prior firm resulting from a raider‘s “malice/predation and/or improper means.” Salomon & Ludwin, LLC v. Winters, 741 F. Supp. 3d 398, 405–06 (E.D. Va. 2024) (internal quotation marks omitted). The court identified severe economic impact as the loss of 40% production but indicated this was a guideline, not a requirement. Id. at 406. And it found that defendants’ efforts to start a competing firm while still employed by Salomon—combined with the resulting loss of 40% of Salomon‘s total employees, 50% of Salomon‘s financial advising team and approximately 30% of Salomon‘s business, including over 400 accounts that amounted to upwards of $300,000,000 in assets—constituted raiding. Id.
Defendants’ appeal requires us to review the district court‘s interpretation of raiding, which is a legal question. See Scarborough v. Ridgeway, 726 F.2d 132, 135 (4th Cir. 1984) (the “interpretation of a written contract is a question of law . . . .“). We find the district court‘s definition is inconsistent with the text of the Protocol, the ordinary meaning of the term “raid” and the industry-specific meaning as all three suggest raiding involves a separate firm targeting employees of another firm.
1. The Text
First, the text. The Protocol says that it “does not bar or otherwise affect the ability of the prior firm to bring an action against the new firm for ‘raiding.‘” J.A. 250. That language applies only to an action against a firm—not individuals. Also, reading this sentence in context with the Protocol as a whole supports this interpretation. See ANTONIN SCALIA & BRYAN GARNER, READING LAW: THE INTERPRETATION OF LEGAL TEXTS 167 (2012) (“A legal instrument typically contains many interrelated parts that make up the whole. The entirety of the document thus provides the context for each of its parts.“). Compliance with the Protocol shields a departing financial advisor and the “firm that he or she joins” from liability. J.A. 250. The use of the term “joins” refers to a financial advisor leaving one firm to go work at a competing firm, not all instances of a financial advisor leaving. Thus, the Protocol contemplates liability
History helps illustrate this distinction. Nebuchadnezzar raided Judah when his army descended from Babylon in sixth-century BC, destroying its cities and exiling its people. 2 Kings 25; Jeremiah 39. In contrast, the Continental Congress did not raid Great Britain when it declared that the 13 colonies were “absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown” and were free and independent states. THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE (U.S. 1776).
But even if the former employees leaving and starting a new competing firm wasn‘t, by definition, a raid, Salomon claims the subsequent solicitation of clients and taking of over $300,000,000 in assets was. Using our historical example, Salomon might argue that
even if the colonists didn‘t technically raid the British when they declared independence, they did so when they took arms and ammunition from British depots. While that argument might have some initial appeal, the text of the Protocol suggests otherwise.
Recall that the Protocol says that “[i]f departing [financial advisor]s and their new firm follow this protocol, neither the departing [financial advisor] nor the firm that he or she joins would have any monetary or other liability to the firm that the [financial advisor] left by reason of the [financial advisor] taking the information identified below or the solicitation of the client serviced by the [financial advisor] at his or her prior firm.” J.A. 250. This means that, under the Protocol, taking clients is generally not actionable against either the departing advisor or the new firm they join. True, this language is followed by the languagе of the raiding exception permitting a prior firm to sue another firm for raiding. But if raiding captures the mere taking of clients, that would conflict with, if not nullify and render superfluous, the language absolving the departing financial advisors and new firm for doing just that. See Funkhouser v. Spahr, 46 S.E. 378, 380 (Va. 1904) (“[O]ne of the established canons of construction, as we have seen, is that effect shall be given to every word in the instrument to be construed, whether it be a will, a contract, a statute, or a constitution.“); see also ANTONIN SCALIA & BRYAN GARNER, READING LAW: THE INTERPRETATION OF LEGAL TEXTS 174 (2012) (“If possible, every word and every provision is to be given effect . . . . None should be ignored. None should needlessly be given an interpretation that causes it to duplicate another provision or to have no consequence.“). To avoid superfluidity, “raid” must mean something else. And as already described, it refers to intruding conduct by an outside firm to steal away employees.
2. The Ordinary Meaning
Second, the ordinary meaning of raiding also refers to a competing firm swooping in to lure employees away from their current employer—not a means of keeping employees from striking out on their own. See TravCo Ins. Co. v. Ward, 736 S.E.2d 321, 325 (Va. 2012) (stating that in interpreting a contract, “[w]ords that the parties used are normally given their usual, ordinary, and popular meaning” (internal quotation marks omitted) (quoting City of Chesapeake v. States Self-Insurers Risk Retention Group, Inc., 628 S.E.2d 539, 541 (Va. 2006))).4
corporate context similarly suggest intrusion by an outsider. See Raid, WEBSTER‘S NEW WORLD COLLEGE DICTIONARY (4th ed. 2004) (alternatively defining “raid” as “an attempt, as by a business concern, to lure employees from a competitor“); see also Raid, BLACK‘S LAW DICTIONARY (8th ed. 2004) (defining “raid” as “[a]n attempt by business . . . to lure employees . . . from a competitor“). Like the text, these definitions suggest that the Protocol contemplates a separate firm taking employees away from Salomon—not employees of that firm leaving of their own accord.
Another tool, corpus linguistics, largely affirms this general understanding of the term “raid.” “Corpus linguistics is the study of language (linguistics) through systematic analysis of data derived from large databases of naturally occurring language (corpora, the plural of corpus, a body of language).” Thomas R. Lee & James C. Phillips, Data-Driven Originalism, 167 U. Pa. L. Rev. 261, 289 (2019). “In layman‘s terms, corpus linguistics clarifies a term‘s meaning by studying the term‘s use across specified time periods and origins.” United States v. Boler, 115 F.4th 316, 332 (4th Cir. 2024) (Quattlebaum, J., dissenting). By searсhing the term “raid,” and then reviewing each use in its context, “a broad picture of how a word or phrase was customarily used and understood during a specified time period can emerge.” United States v. Rice, 36 F.4th 578, 583 n.6 (4th Cir. 2022). To start, the Corpus of Contemporary American English (“COCA“) “contains over one billion words of text . . . from eight genres: spoken, fiction, popular magazines, newspapers, academic texts, TV and movie subtitles, blogs, and other web pages” spanning 1990 through 2019. Corpus of Contemporary American English, https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/ [https://perma.cc/9JQP-9M42] (last visited July 30, 2025).
Searching the word “raid” for uses between 2000 and 2009, the years surrounding the Protocol‘s drafting, produced 2085 hits. COCA‘s random sampling function pulled 100 hits from that total, which are attached as an appendix. And while not all of the uses of “raid” in the sample contain sufficient context to lend supрort here, many uses do—affirming that a raid involves hostile intrusion. For example, 11 of the 100 samples reference some form of aerial raid between hostile parties, including well-known air raids of World War II between Germany and Great Britain. Another 10 reference law enforcement or investigative raids in connection with criminal activity. Even biology lends support to our understanding of the term raid. Natural History Magazine describes a specific bird‘s tendency to “raid spider webs for ensnared arthropods.” Spanning differences in discipline, medium and time, corpus linguistics affirms that a raid requires
3. The Industry-Specific Meaning
Finally, even if we accept the district court‘s definition of raiding from the financial services industry, raiding necessarily requires an outside firm. The article the district court largely relied on says so. John D. Finnerty et al., Calculating Damages in Broker Raiding Cases, 11:2 Stan. J.L. Bus. & Fin. 261, 262–63 (2006) (“In a field where authorities have difficulty agreeing upon the very definition of raiding, how does a practitioner or party know when the case at hand involves a raiding claim? A recent legal conference on raiding in the securities industry attempted to answer this very question, eventually defining raiding as a ‘compensable hiring of producers in a definable business unit of one firm by a competing firm.‘” (second emphasis added)). This makes sense because otherwise raiding
would be reduced largely to a numbers game based on some percentage of economic impact to the old firm. Imagine two partners form a financial services shop. After a while, a personality conflict develops. One decides to start a new endeavor and departs, complying perfectly with the Protocol. So long as a significant number of clients decided to stick with him at his nеw firm, there would likely be liability for raiding under the district court‘s definition.5 But if that same professional worked at a large enough firm and the percentage was not triggered on his departure, there would not be raiding. This goes too far.
To summarize, defendants’ conduct could not constitute raiding for two reasons. First, four of the five defendants are individuals. And the Protocol‘s plain text establishes that the raiding exception applies only to firms. Second, the remaining entity defendant, Founders Grove, did not seek to lure employees away from Salomon. It was created by the former employees so that they could start a new endeavor after resigning from Salomon using the very information they were expressly permitted to take under the Protocol. Such conduct is not raiding under the text of the Protocol or as the term is understood by its ordinary meaning or its meaning in the financial services industry. Thus, we decline to affirm the preliminary injunction based on the Protocol as to either the former employees or Founders Grove.
B. The Agreements
But just because defendants’ conduct does not constitute raiding under the Protocol does not mean the injunction was improper. “[W]e are not limited to evaluation of the grounds offered by the district court to support its decision, [and we] may affirm on any grounds apparent from the record.” United States v. Smith, 395 F.3d 516, 519 (4th Cir. 2005); see also S.E.C. v. Fife, 311 F.3d 1, 8 (1st Cir. 2002) (“We may affirm the district court‘s grant of a preliminary injunction . . . on any grounds supported by the record.“). The plain language of the Agreements provides such an alternative ground for finding likelihood of success on the merits as to the former employees, but not as to Founders Grove.
Under Virginia law, “[t]he pole star for the construction of a contract is the intention of the contracting parties as expressed by them in the words they have used.” Ames v. Am. Nat‘l Bank of Portsmouth, 176 S.E. 204, 216 (Va. 1934) (emphasis in original); see also TM Delmarva Power v. NCP of Virginia, 557 S.E.2d 199, 200 (Va. 2002) (“Contracts between parties are subject to basic rules of interpretation. Contracts are construed as written, without adding terms that were not included by the parties.“). The words used by the parties in the Agreements indicate that the Protocol does not apply to Winters, Atwood, Thompson and Sorensen. Recall, the Agreements state:
The parties to this agreement acknowledge that [Salomon] is not part of or subject to Broker Protocol. In the event [Salomon] elects to join the Broker Protocol, the parties further agree that this agreement shall take precedence over and shall apply, regardless of the terms of the Protocol for Broker Recruiting and that this agreement shall apply and control in the event that any term of this agreement conflicts with any term of the Protocol for Broker Recruiting.
J.A. 56, 71, 85, 99 (capitalization altered).
Under that language, if Salomon was not a member of the Protocol, the Agreements would control. And if Salomon became a member of the Protocol, the Agreements would also control. But does that leave a contractual gap where, as here, Salomon was already a member at the time the Agreements were signed? Perhaps. But the text of this provision, read as a whole, indicates that the Agreements prevail over the Protocol whether or not Salomon is a member. Precisely when Salomon became a member does little to change that. And to accept any other reading would contravene Virginia law, which prohibits us from “read[ing] into contracts language which will add to or take away from the meaning of the words already contained therein.” Wilson v. Holyfield, 313 S.E.2d 396, 398 (Va. 1984). Put simply, the meaning of the words hеre indicate the Agreements control over the Protocol regardless of Salomon‘s Protocol-membership status.
With that issue settled, the non-solicitation and confidentiality provisions of the Agreements likely prohibit the former employees’ conduct. Indeed, the former employees all but admitted below, and do not dispute on appeal, that “[Salomon]‘s client information constitutes a trade secret” and that they took it with them to start Founders Grove. Salomon, 841 F. Supp. 3d at 405. Thus, Salomon has shown a strong likelihood of success on the merits of its trade secrets claims as to the former employees.
However, the district court‘s preliminary injunction broadly enjoined all defendants, including the newly formed entity, Founders Grove. And Founders Grove was not a party to the Agreements. Therefore, it cannot be enjoined on that basis. Of course, Winters and
Atwood are the members of Founders Grove, and all four individuals are now employees at Founders Grove. To be clear, the injunction as to the former employees extends to actions they take on behalf of Founders Grove. But to the extent the district court preliminarily enjoined Founders Grove itself, we find that was an abuse of discretion.6
Because the former employees’ main line of attack was that they should enjoy the protections of the Protocol, they hardly marshal a defense under the Agreements on irreparable harm,7 balance of
III.
In sum, the district court did not abuse its discretion in granting the preliminary injunction as to the former employees. It did, however, abuse its discretion in granting the preliminary injunction as to Founders Grove. Therefore, the district court‘s order is,
AFFIRMED IN PART AND VACATED IN PART.
