Non-Compete

[spav]

Hi,

I joined my employer back in 2004 and I work as a contractor at Employer's client(s). At that time it was verbally agreed that I can join the client and they even provided a letter giving permission in advance to join the client. I asked them to give me a release letter again to join current client I am working at and they refused. They are saying that we have a non-compete agreement as per the employee agreement. Does non-compete apply in my case as they gave me a release letter in the past? How this can be resolved? Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

What is the name of your state? VA

Since we can't read either the non-compete or the release from here, we have no idea.

You will need to take both documents, plus any supporting documentation, to a local attorney for review.
