A severance agreement is a contract between an employer and an employee. It specifies a payment to an employee in exchange for a resignation and waiver of legal claims against the employer. This agreement can protect the interests of each party and prevent costly and lengthy litigation. Before entering into a severance agreement, it is essential to engage legal counsel to protect your rights and ensure the best possible outcome for you.
