What is the name of your state? Illinois
I signed a contract as a music teacher for a local music store. The contract states:
"It is further agreed that if I do not wish to continue using the facilities of [name of store] for teaching, I will give the studio coordinator a 30 day written notice. All students taught at [name of store] are not to be recruited by former teachers of [name of store] for a period of six months."
Now, however, that studio is being sold to another company. The new company contacted me today telling me that they will be raising my studio-use rates once they gain ownership. (In the past, I had to pay 20% per half hour lesson. The new rates increase it to 30%.)
My question: Since I signed the contract under the first store's name, is it still legally binding when the piano studio comes under the new ownership?
