My question involves independent contractors in the state of: Nevada
My employer wants me to sign a non-compete. I work for a sales company and the contract states that I would not be able to work in my industry for two years. Additionally, it states that I can not go after any clients that I bring into the business. My pay is 100% contracted, and I am not paid a salary by my employer. My employer does require that I come into the office in order to continue to collect commissions.
I wanted to start a firm within the next 4-6 months using products that I brought into the firm. I have been employer for over a year, and the firm started with one product. My employer recently wanted me to sign the contract.
I was curious regarding the legality of my employer, and if I am still able to begin my own firm after termination with this employer.
