1 Answer from Attorneys
Yes, your previous employer could come after you. There are several causes of action that may be applicable, but it is impossible to determine without more facts. Some of the more important facts would be whether you executed any agreements that would prohibit you from competing and whether you are using any of its trade secrets or confidential information. Generally, the law will not prevent you from earning a living, but that does not mean your previous employer will not try to stop you. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in discussing this matter and taking step to protect yourself.
