Mason Law reviews and negotiates severance agreements. There are a number of factors that may be negotiable in severance agreements including:
Monetary compensation
Provisions for references and letters of recommendations
Continuation of benefits
Agreement not to contest unemployment benefits
Non-disparagement provisions
Non-compete agreements
Release of claims against an employee
It is often helpful to have an employment attorney lawyer review a severance agreement because employers frequently draft agreements in ways that disadvantage the employee. Being represented by an attorney can help restore the balance the power in an agreement.
