Until the end of 2007, I owned a one-man corporation registered in Florida. The corporation provided consulting services to a client to whom I had been introduced by an intermediary agency. My corporation had a contract with the agency (not directly with the client), and it included a non-compete clause forbidding my corporation or its employees from soliciting work from the client for a period of 6 months after contract termination.

The contract with the agency expired at the end of 2007, and I also moved from FL to Massachusetts. I domesticated the corporation in MA and dissolved the FL corporation; from the federal viewpoint the corporation still exists (same EIN), but it no longer exists as a FL entity.

The FL client would like my corporation (i.e. me) to continue to provide consulting services to them. My question: is my MA corporation bound by the non-compete clause that I signed for the FL corporation, or can I make a direct contract with the client without risking a law suit?

Many thanks for any insight.
