My former boss sent me an email letting me know that they have heard that I've contacted one of their current clients. They didn't say who, or what it was about, but liked for me to reply back to them that I will not contact them.
The reason I contacted him was that I wanted to let him know I was no longer employed and moved on to another job. Also, my intention was to get information regarding a software suggestion that I could buy to do a particular task.
I also mentioned I was happy with my new employer.
Perhaps I was wrong for contacting this client, but I didn't see any harm for my actions and I feel they are harrassing me with phone calls everday with call ID turned off, and left no VM.
I'm not sure why I need to reagree to a document I signed when I started because of a "hunch" that they believe I'm solicitating business when I contacted the guy just once.
Can this really hold up in court provided is all hear-say? I'm sure that they have no evidence, otherwise, they'd see that I only contacted him for a software application suggestion just once. Also, they didn't explicitly say what I did other than they client had made him aware. The subject line stated a "possible" breach of contract and was very unclear what they really know. Otherwise, they would know it's a misunderstanding.
I'm also afraid this guy might be playing into threatning me with handing it over to their attorneys. I have no problem hiring an attorney on my behalf, but could this go in favor of them? What's a worse case scenario in terms of settlement should they win?
