Cease & Desist / Preservation Demand From Previous Employer

Card image cap

Location: Houston TX

Hello all, I was laid off on Monday along with a handful of others due to a reduction in force. I received a cease and desist that states the company is going to pursue litigation against me if I don’t comply with the demands of the c&d by the 18th of this month. I know a lot of people say C&D’s don’t hold a lot of weight on their own, but the owners have a history of suing, and I have reasonable suspicion that they might pursue me in that manner. I’m asking how I would go about finding legal representation for this matter. I also have a strict budget now that I’m unemployed. Any help will be appreciated.

Edit: I’ve added what’s within the C&D.

  1. I have stopped and will not make statements regarding the company is closing

  2. I will not access any confidential information by the company or patient information

  3. I have delivered all company/patient documents to (their attorney) that were in my control. (I don’t have any)

  4. A list of anyone I’ve talked to about the company after I was laid off, and devices I communicated with said people on.
