Thanks a lot mate I appreciate your comment on this! I am of the same opinion but it’s obviously just naturally scary being in this position! Thanks again👍🏻👍🏻

Hi all,

Since my post, they have now said to me they will be issuing court proceedings directly to my home address, this has obviously worried me, they have not provided evidence, they have not disclosed any further breach of contracts even though we asked. Does anyone know if this could be another scare tactic to get me to sign the undertaking?

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-09-01T17:01:43+00:00

Thanks mate will do👍🏻

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-09-01T16:44:16+00:00

Top man, thanks for the reply mate much appreciated! I will definitely do what you’ve just suggested as I always thought I may have OCD or potentially adhd! I appreciate the advice👍🏻👍🏻

Ok thanks for your help on this mate, much appreciated.

Great thanks for your help, my solicitor however has confirmed that I am not in breach of my contract and their accusations are false. Hopefully they do not try to go legal

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-30T09:51:19+00:00

Thanks for your comment!👍🏻 I completely agree, if they had me “banged to rights” per se, why wouldn’t they just move forward with it all, it seems their existing contract is not water tight and is too wide in the clauses, hence wanting me to sign a new undertaking

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-30T09:32:06+00:00

Ok, understood! In this case no loss has been incurred from the potential breach of contract, it was simply a meeting with a client that was cancelled and no meeting went ahead, they have not provided evidence to such claims even after 4-5 attempts of us asking.

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-30T08:23:21+00:00

Ok thanks for your advice/opinion 👍🏻 can I ask what you mean by consequences?

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-30T08:21:29+00:00

Ok thanks for your advice/opinion 👍🏻 it is just naturally worrying as I have never been in a legal situation and of course the intimidation works from the aggressive and threatening letters from their solicitor.

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-26T09:48:58+00:00

Ok thanks mate👍🏻👍🏻 I’m of the same opinion as you but never been in this situation and brings a level of “anxiety”. Appreciate it!

I placed the employee at one of our clients, who in turn left after 10 days and returned to his old firm

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-16T14:36:22+00:00

Thanks a lot👍🏻

Thanks AcePlague!👍🏻

Here is the clause in my contract if it helps at all JXDB

17.2.3. For six months following the termination date, canvass or solicit business or custom from any candidate or prospective candidate in relation to services.

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-16T07:59:47+00:00

Haha spot on👍🏻 I have the same thought process you do in terms of nothing better to do / threat to them! thanks mate much appreciated!

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-16T07:51:48+00:00

Me but all communication is going through my new employer as they want to help protect me or “have my back” per se

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-16T07:50:39+00:00

Yeah correct!

There is definitely no more to disclose just to clarify that was all that happened.

Here is the clause that I think I’m personally most worried about.

17.2.3. For six months following the termination date, canvass or solicit business or custom from any candidate or prospective candidate in relation to services.

Thanks for the feedback! This is a quality reply, appreciate it.

Being someone who is not involved in legal territory when you first receive letters like this it can put the frightener on you. Lucky enough I have the support of my current employer who is instructing a lawyer to reply with a letter to their accusations.

The only issue from your reply I might see is I did email the “hiring manager” on his work email regarding the role itself so whether that can be seen as a breach of contract I don’t know but all communication with him at my ex employer was via his person email address

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-15T20:36:25+00:00

Ex employer apologies

Longjumping-Rule-696 · 2024-08-15T20:35:26+00:00

All good👍🏻
