        Hello,

        Posting on my friend’s behalf as he doesn’t have reddit account.

        I was working for an IT firm (let’s say A) from 2020 to 2024. Before joining, i signed a NDA where it was written that i cannot join their client or competitor for a period of 12 months after leaving the firm.

        I switched to another company(B) which is not their client/competitor and worked there for 8 months. Later i joined the company(C) which was the client of my first company(A).

        Now today, i got a legal notice from company A stating that i breached the contract and they want me to resign within 14 days of receiving the notice. Else they’ll take legal and criminal action against me. I have informed this to my current company C and they will let me know the next steps after consulting their legal team.

        I am not sure what’a gonna happen and what should i do. Looking for some guidance.
