Personally, I never stole a deal. Didn't need to...yet. But I did ask a top NY corporate attorney if I COULD take customers from one company to another. She said her interpretation of the law is that if you have PREVIOUSLY made contact with an account it is okay to contact the account at a new company. This, she said, is especially true for example, if the account has your personal cell phone number, calls you on it and says they only want to deal with you.
What she said is definitely against the law and could end you up in jail, is, if you take a list of customers from one company that you have never spoken to and called them from a new company. This is called theft of corporate data. Bad, bad sales-rep. Don't do it.
