My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: New York
If I signed a non-compete/non-solicitation from my current (Sales) company for 12 months and decided to resign and start my own business doing the same thing.
Can they enforce a non-Solicitation/non-compete if I don't do any business in the first 12 months? Do I have to do a Sale with their Clients first before they can say "you can't do that" ?
If I start my own business doing the exact same thing but no sale has been done, can they tell me to stop even if they find out?
