Legal Answers
- Q. Can I claim damages for a former employee selling for competitor while employed?
- A: The cause of action that is most likely to be successful is a "Breach of Fiduciary Duty" claim> Even without a "non-compete" agreement, employees owe their employers a duty of good faith and fair dealing and are not allowed to "steal business" or otherwise maliciously hurt their employer. You should speak with a business Litigation attorney. Many will give a free consultation.
Good Luck!
