Legal Question in Business Law in Georgia
Georgia No-Compete
My employer after employment made me sign a no-compete agreement. Is the no-compete agreement valid if I sign it after I quit?

Re: Georgia No-Compete
It may or not be valid/enforceable depending on the language it contains. The fact that you signed it after you quit is irrelevant, except that if you executed the contract with no consideration, i.e., you gave up your right to compete in exchange for nothing, then it may not be enforceable. I would need further information to give you a better answer.
If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
