Legal Answers
Q. I have a non compete, it says I can’t work in the industry I have been working in. Will a court actually side with this

Q. Am I going to lose my current job?
A: You would need to reach out directly to a South Carolina employment lawyer for a review of the contract in more detail.
Q. I am trying to find out if I can break my employment contract. I can send over the contract to who is able to answer.
