Some basic background info.

Work is in the environmental field, been doing this same type of job for 5 years. Highly specialized job.

Majority of those years with a different company, only been with this former employer for 3 months. Just wasn't the right fit for me in terms of personnel and way things were run.

Non complete is pretty generic.

Don't work for a competitor within 100 mile radius of office for 2 years.

Only thing is, no specific office is specified other than the fact that I've worked out of said office. Work is nation wide, traveling east to west coast. No mention of a particular office or what defines working out of said office.

Again, no region/parish/city is expressly identified/mentioned.

Any other particular info needed to make a decision?

You're good. My best friend is an employment attorney and got me out of mine in the Baton Rouge area, as well as my brother in the Atlanta area.

Mine stated I couldn't work for a competitor within 150 miles of Baton Rouge. My brother's was within a 50 mile radius of Atlanta. In both instances, my buddy told the employers he'd be more than happy to take it before a judge and neither company wanted to pursue it.
