There are good arguments to support a contention that a requirement to litigate an employment related claim in Delaware violates Louisiana law.

Note: This is a general statement and is not intended to provide you with specific legal advice.

23:921:

"(2) The provisions of every employment contract or agreement, or provisions thereof, by which any foreign or domestic employer or any other person or entity includes a choice of forum clause or choice of law clause in an employee's contract of employment or collective bargaining agreement, or attempts to enforce either a choice of forum clause or choice of law clause in any civil or administrative action involving an employee, shall be null and void except where the choice of forum clause or choice of law clause is expressly, knowingly, and voluntarily agreed to and ratified by the employee after the occurrence of the incident which is the subject of the civil or administrative action."

The "incident" would be the breach.
