non-compete of former firm when family business was client

I have a non-compete agreement and am starting a competing firm outside their geographic restriction. It states that I can not speak to anyone who was a client of my former firm. Some of the clients are relatives of mine and many were people I knew well before I began working for that firm. How would they enforce my not speaking to my Dad, cousin, and clients of my family's business?

Okay,

I agree with you in certain respects. This specific language of the agreement must be analyzed for "reasonableness". It does not sound as if this agreement is reasonable. An employment lawyer must review the actual agreement to be able to lay out a plan.
