Full Conversation

Vistra company uses TBP recruiter who charges *% to recruit contractors for his Fenergo project. Pablo owns a consultancy firm. PAblo has been hired as contractor via TBP by Vistra. Maya works for Pablo's consultancy firm and has also been hired via TBP and Pablo's consultancy to work for Vistra. The contract between Maya and PAblo's consultancy does not have a non-compete clause.
Thanks for explaining the first part. To better understand your situation, can you please explain the second part of your scenario?
Second part:
Alright, I’m following along. Can you go ahead and explain the second part of your situation?
TBP has hired Maya directly and remove Pablo's consultancy as middle man. Therefore Pablo's consultancy continues to work for Vistra via TBP, but does not get any money form MAya's work anymore, as Maya resigned from PAblo's consultancy and next day started to work for Vistra directly via TBP. The reason why that happen is because TBP revealed to Maya the money that PAblo's consultancy was making from Maya's employment. As direct consequence Maya decided that she would make more money working directly with TBP. PAblo is not happy to continue working via TBP because they stole Maya from him and made a bad move against him.
Based on the scenario you've provided, it seems Pablo might have a potential legal issue regarding TBP's actions. However, since the contract between Maya and Pablo's consultancy does not contain a non-compete clause, Maya is legally free to change employers.
To better guide you, could you clarify if there are any other contractual agreements or clauses between Pablo's consultancy and TBP or Vistra that might influence the situation?
and the 3rd part with questions:
Given the details so far, it seems Pablo might have a case for tortious interference or breach of implied contract, depending on the specifics of the agreements between the parties involved.
Can you please explain the third part of your situation?
Several questions: *- Can Maya leave PAblo's consultnacy and start working directly with TBP the very next day? *- Can PAblo sue TBP for revealing confidential information that TBP benefited from? *- Pablo's consultancy was almost fired from Vistra because Maya said bad false things about how she was hired, lies basically to give a bad reputation to PAblo's company but PAblo was always clear to Maya that he was making commission from her employment. Issues are now resolved. Can Pablo sue TBP for the loss of opportunity and the reputational impact? *- Can Pablo use any of the prior information to stop working via TBP due to their poor behaviour with him?
*. Maya's Employment:
- Yes, without a non-compete clause, Maya can leave Pablo's consultancy and start working directly with TBP the next day.
*. Confidential Information:
- Pablo might have grounds to sue TBP if there was a breach of confidentiality. This depends on any existing confidentiality agreements.
*. Reputational Damage:
- Pablo could potentially sue for defamation or loss of business opportunities, but he'd need solid evidence of the false statements and their impact.
*. Ending Relationship with TBP:
- Pablo can consider terminating the contract with TBP if their behavior constitutes a breach of contract or bad faith.
Are there specific confidentiality agreements between Pablo's consultancy and TBP?
can I upload the contract between TBP and Pablo here so you can assess it?
It's not possible to upload the contract here, but you can describe any key clauses or terms, especially those related to confidentiality, non-compete, or termination. This will help in assessing the potential legal standing of Pablo's case.
