Did
you sign an agreement preventing you from working for
a competitor, or from using customer or technical knowledge
for your benefit or for the benefit of another company
after you have left employment? Whether a court will
enforce an agreement that restricts what you can do
after you leave employment may likely be determined
by the specific facts of case. Was the agreement signed
when you began employment or after you already started?
Have you been paid the wages you were promised in exchange
for signing the agreement not to compete? The way your
employer treated you during your employment and whether
you resigned or were fired can make a significant difference.
