Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey

The key consideration in non-competes is reasonableness in both duration and geographic scope. In all likelihood unless this entity has operations in FL restricting you based solely on industry would be excessive.

I suggest that before you do anything you have the agreement reviewed by counsel. The following is a brief overview of the topic:

If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.

Our firm is now referred by the American Bar Association (see under the New York section):

Indeed, you may have a leg to stand on but need to review your non-compete agreement to be sure.

Such a review is not expensive and is part of our flat fee commitment so you don't get surprise charges. Feel free to contact me directly to get things started.
