The Firm advises individuals who have been offered severance or asked to sign a severance agreement or a waiver and release of claims.
- Because such agreements purport to be binding contracts they usually contain clauses terminating, waiving or limiting certain rights of the individual employee.
- Some employers attempt to overreach in drafting and may impose obligations on employees that may be burdensome or contrary to law.
- It is imperative that employees receive adequate counsel on the form and substance of a severance agreement before signing.
- Under certain circumstances, employees may be entitled to more severance than that offered by the employer.
