Really, so what, I'm just doing this, I just asked the question for the fun of it? Unfortunately there is no way for me to prove myself without exposing myself. That said, whether or not I'm telling the truth is irrelevant. It's a valid question. Most companies cover their asses with non-competes, employment agreements, non-disclosure agreements, etc. I'm in a unique position because it was a family business, my family and the business was sold to a large national company so it's no longer in the family. I'm sure you can understand how a family member could get to a senior leadership position without signing one of these agreements. That's what happened. I could have stayed on with the new owners but they did something that violated the employment agreement I signed when they took over making that agreement null and void. It's then when I decided to exit the company because I didn't/don't trust them and why I would even consider doing something like this.
The bottom line is, the facts are simple and I've repeated them multiple times now. No agreements in place. Company secret. If revealed, what law would apply? Either someone here has the answer or not. If not, no need to comment. I never thought this would turn into what it became. I still view it as a legit business law question that any business law atty would want to know so you can protect your clients secrets. When you're talking a 100+ million dollar company, a lot is at stake.
