More details to this question:
I entered into a contract with and LLC. The contract states that I cannot do business with any of their clients for 2 years after leaving the company. However, I have now discovered that they do not even HAVE an LLC. It was dissolved a year prior to my contract. So if I signed a contract with "XXY Company, LLC" clearly stated, would the contract be null and void since they did not actually exist?

You should get an experienced employment attorney to review the agreement. It is possible that it is not enforceable because the LLC did not exist at the time the agreement was executed.
