Hi Per,

... it says "in your employment". But you are not an employee of that company.


... which is why it doesn't say "in your employement with us." He is employed with someone.

Jez,

In the context of this contract, who or what is "the Company?" Your employer or their customer? Also, since I am wholly ignorant of British law, my opinion is of limited value at best. Does Britain comply with the principles of the U.C.C. (Uniform Commercial Code)? At least that could be a basis for some thoughts.

Finally, isn't it a bit late to be asking about such things? If you've already signed it, you've at least guaranteed that if you can successfully fight it, you'll have to cough up a boatload of attorney's (barrister's) fees up front. That alone could easily render a moderately valuable invention net-worthless.

Joe
