What is the name of your state? Michigan
Last year my compnay decided to move my department to a location 3 hours away and offered a relocation package.
At first I was not going to take it and just leave my job but my management begged me to "give it a shot" so I decided to try it.
HR wanted me to sign a one year contract for the relocation but I told them i would not and my management agreed it was not fair since I had no choice if i wanted to keep my job. So I decided not to sign the agreement.
After approx 6 month my team was disbanded and I was placed in a role well below my skillsets, so I decided to find another job. Acouple months later I put in my resignation letter and left the company. That was about 3 months ago and then last friday I had a certified letter in the mail sueing me for 50K saying that I signed the contract.
I have hired a lawyer to deal with this, but I wanted some opinions from anyone else that has seen this and knows how to deal with it.
Thanks
