I agree- if it's an unfair contract, it can be contested. These kind of contracts are pretty common though so I'm not sure how much luck he'd have.
but since I too have signed away six months to one of these kinds of contracts if I finish in my current job (it actually states I can't work for a competitors company which I think is unfair). I'd be interested to know how legally bindingthey actually are
