Severance Agreements
For employers, there may come a time when an employee in your business will be let go from his or her position. I will draft severance packages which will benefit the business and the ex-employee. These severance packages help to prevent litigation as they leave the ex-employee feeling as satisfied as can be after one has just been let go.
