Need advice on non compete and non solicitation agreement.

[mohana80]

Hi,
I am on H1B visa. I worked for     employer A until  this year January. I signed non compete and non solicitation agreement  with it . I joined employer B in January. Now employer B  is laying off me. Another company C is offering me the job but this company C is the current customer of Company A. Am I still abide by the agreement with company A or is it safe to join company  C? It will be six month since I left company A and the agreement was for one year after I left job. 
Please share your experiences and suggestions. 
Thank you!

Better run through by labor lawyer...

Tell your current employer to buy you out from the company you signed the non compete and non solicitation agreement .

If the employer lays you off the agreement should no longer be valid. Check with a labor lawyer.

Check with Employer A and if they can give you a NOC you should be good. If the agreement is for 1 year then it can be enforced.
