Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

Check/read employment contract. I'm in Europe and one of the american contractor companies (Volt) wants me to work on a contract in France. The contract is written based on American law. Need an American attorney to look at it.

Basically, my concern is to prevent the company (contractor and the company I do work for) to have legal rights to programming I do after hours. The contract is for Amadeus (french/spanish company that do airline software), whilst after hours I program for a danish foreign exchange trading software company. I dont want no conflict of interest.
