that letter isn't dry enough to be an attorney's work.

It does indeed feel like something written by somebody on the internet with a moderate education trying to intimidate somebody else. I'd look up the attorney's name and see if he/she really exists.

you didn't sign anything when you left the company?

Often non-competition clauses are signed when you agree to commence employment, not when you leave.

That letter looks like something I'd write, I wouldn't be suprised if it wasn't even written by a lawyer.

A lawyers retarded 11 year old son? Maybe.

Maybe the paralegal wrote it and had the atty sign...

um yeah, but some companies want you to sign them as you leave. they try to slip it in with severance packages or ESPP/stock options stuff.

If that's the case he needs a new para!
