Should I have an attorney review my severance agreement?
Absolutely. At Haulk & Herrera LLP, we review severance agreements to ensure you’re not giving up important legal rights and that the compensation offered is fair.
What can be negotiated in a severance package?
Beyond the payout, you can often negotiate extended health benefits, positive references, payment for unused vacation, and a neutral termination letter.
My employer wants me to sign a release of claims—what does that mean?
This means you’re giving up the right to sue your employer for anything related to your employment. We make sure you understand exactly what rights you may be waiving.
Can I ask for more money in a severance offer?
Yes. We frequently negotiate higher severance amounts, especially if you have potential legal claims against your employer.
