Good luck.
Q. I consulted (without a K) for a tech company that's struggling. They owed me money so I quit. Can I compete w/ them?
A: Hello. Generally, non-competes should be in writing because they should express a time limit for the non-compete and what the scope of the non-compete should be. If you signed a document that includes a non-compete clause or a non-compete language, then you'd want to analyze that language and get an attorney's take on it. Some non-competes are narrow and some are broad. I understand that you didn't have a contract, but did you sign something else with the company - like on-boarding paperwork, confidentiality agreement, etc. These are all important documents and information for an attorney to know.

Additionally, as a contractor, depending on the type of work you did, the work product that you developed for the company could belong to the company (see works made for hire article here - https://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ30.pdf); thus you'd want to analyze this particular issue with your attorney as well, especially if you signed a document assigning the company your rights to the intellectual property or idea. You'd want to be careful using an idea that actually belongs to the company. A qualified attorney can help you work through these issues.

Good luck!
