Severance Agreements
If you are an employee being terminated from your company and you have been offered a severance package, it is in your best interest to speak with an employment attorney. Many severance agreements have general releases, meaning that once you sign it, you are not allowed to bring a lawsuit against the company. We will analyze the agreement to see if more favorable terms are possible and if the compensation provided to you is adequate. Often, if you have a potential claim against the company, we can achieve a larger severance package for you.
If you are an employer, and you are concerned about potential legal action by a terminated employee, we can draft severance agreements designed to minimize the risk of litigation.
