I worked for a company and never signed a non compete agreement. I recently quit because and have started my own business in the same field. The owner of the company I used to work for has stated to me that he is going to sue me. I am not sure for what???

None of the attorneys here know what your former employer might sue you for, either. Sometimes former employers sue for theft of intellectual property/trade secrets, which MIGHT include customer-related information. You might have signed an agreement in which you promised not to solicit employees of the employer's business. But non-compete agreements are not enforceable in California, so there's no need to worry about that one.
