What is the name of your state? North Carolina
Here is the situation, I was fired from my prevous job. I did everything in my power to make sure the separation was professional. I answered all their questions, told them to call me if they needed anything and they did, and I helped them out.
I was hired by a competing company and I immediately started soliciting business from my old companies clients. A number of them switched to the new firm based on the relationship I had developed with them over the years.
I was served at the police dept with a strange aggreement letter yesterday, bascally saying that if i don't agree to quit commpeting with them and soliciting business from their clients, that they will file criminal charges against me. The charge really is poo, unauthorized use of a computer. They also said in front of a witness (the detective) that if i was indeed charged that "rest assured, it will be in the paper".
I have not signed the thing. It was very sloppily worded and was NOT prepared by a lawyer. I m going to have this reviewed by a layer, but haven't been able to meet with one yet.
Can anyone give me any advice on this matter?
Thanks!
