Is my non-compete agreement still enforceable against me?

I signed a non-compete agreement with my employer over 13 years ago. Since that time, the company for which I originally was hired, integrated with another company, as a result, the original company which hired me, (Named ABC company), no longer exists, and a new company name has been established and made. Since the integration of these two companies, I have not signed a new agreement with the new company name. Because my original non-compete was with ABC company, and the current company name is now something else, is my non-compete still valid against me?

There is a possibility that your agreement may not be enforcable. However, you would need to have it reviewed by a lawyer to look for such things as a clause permitting an assignment of the agreement to a successor employer.
