CANLAW KNOWS LABOUR LAW LAWYERS

Should I have a lawyer review my severance agreement?

DO NOT sign any severance offer without receiving legal advice.

There is no legal time limit. You are in a negotiation and your employer's deadline is just there to frighten you. If that offer expires, so what. Your employer must provide some form of settlement. The trick is for you to get the best deal you can, even if it takes a little longer.

 

It is important to hire an employment lawyer to review a severance package.

 An experienced employment lawyer can help protect you from the risk of waiving rights unnecessarily or leaving money on the table.

Don't sign any severance offer before you talk to a labour law lawyer and get legal advice. Your employment lawyer's job is make sure you are being treated fairly and get all to which you are entitled.
