No non compete agreement in place
As a student and recently after graduation I worked with a friend in a start up business. While employed, I handled almost every facet of the business, sales, manufacturing products, product design , customer service and warranty work etc. The relationship has gone south and I am contemplating starting up a similar business using the web to reach potential customers. I did not sign a NDA nor a non compete agreement. Will I face any liability if I go into direct competition with my previous employer? Many of the products I will be selling or easily available to anyone to resell. Some products are custom manufactured ( no patent) and I have located separate and different manufacturers to make the products and provided my own measurements and designs.
Re: No non compete agreement in place
You can do this and I can assist you with any legal aspect of your online business; that is the area of law I mainly practice in.
