what knowledge I may have about some design technique is mine to do with as I please. All I am being employed for is my years of relevant experiance in relevent areas. As Richard says, if it went to court the argument would boil down to whether you were just applying "design techniques" and using your "years of relevant experiance in relevent areas" - or whether you'd nicked "trade secrets" from the previous employer. Getting the jugde & jury to understand the difference is the tricky - and expensive (in lawyers fees) - bit. |
