a staff member left last year - and took details of many customers contacting them and as a result we have lost several good customers, the ex employee has now set up a shop within a mile of us and is continuing to contact our customers referring himself as ''formally'' working for our company. Sadly he did not sign an employment contract - he was related to the other director of this co... he also made life difficult bombarding us with problems with health and safety, fire, trading standards - all of which turned out ok but was a big inconveninece... is there any way we can prevent him contacting our customers, and suggesting he is associated on good terms with us still?

I think that (in theory at least) he has an implied duty of care towards you as his former employers.
I can however imagine any legislation to be costly, and perhaps borderline over whether it goes in your favour or not.
