Former Employer May Sue, So Be Careful

Many companies these days are taking their former employees to court to try to enforce a covenant not to compete. You must take the relevant documents and consult with an experienced employment attorney in your area. Good advice right now could possibly save you from having to spend thousands of dollars defending yourself in a lawsuit. There are several good employment lawyers in your area of the state. You should consult with one.
