Legal Question in Business Law in New York

Not having seen the non-compete this is difficult to answer. If I could see the non-compete language I would give an opinion. Contact me directly for assistance.

The short answer is yes, you can be sued - you can always be sued. Of course, doing so requires a major commitment from the former employer and a lot of money and the bigger question is "will it be worth that effort?" The likelihood that you will be sued is slim but it happens.

In NY, non-competes between employers and employees are rarely enforced, but this does not mean that those suits are not brought.

As my colleague notes, the agreement will need to be reviewed along with all the facts in circumstances in order for anyone to offer advice.

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

Kind regards,
