what if the owner made you sign an aknowledgement waiver that you cant take you clientele with you?
AND WOULD IT STAND IN COURT!!?
if so is there a legal way around it?
Answers:
Usually, you cannot solicit the clients or set up business within a certain amt of miles from your previous location, for a minimum of X amt of years depending on what the contract states. And yes, if you do, you can be sued %26 lose. (see dulcrayon's answer). If you have such a contract, check with an attorney.
Just let them know where you will be working in future - your owner can't tell anyone where they get their hair cut ! What they choose is their business.
I seriously doubt that would stand up in court.
Such a waiver should be signed at the beginning of your contract of employment.
If it was not - the employer can not force you to sign it when you quit.
you work for commission, but the salon provides your customers. if you came to the salon with a client list, and kept them, then you would probably not have any problem taking them with you, but if you arrived with out clients and acquired them during your employment at that establishment then they belong to the shop-not you.
