⚠ Are there any provisions in your severance agreement that I did not cover? Tell us about them here! ⚠
What if you sign the severance package but you are not in your mental state?
May want to update the new NLRB rulings on disparagement and confidentiality
I was a senior manager for a railroad and asked for a severance agreement from my employer citing unsafe work conditions and a hostile work environment, and immediately got fired. I have a whistleblower case against them now and that is part of it. Thank you for these videos, they are very helpful.
“Take this $400,000 and get out of my face!” Sounds like winning the jackpot to me.
Sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
Thanks so educational ! You have helped me more than you could ever know. Thank you 😊 I will continue to watch and learn from your videos !
Thanks man I recently contacted your office because I love your videos great information and very honest about the whole process again thanks.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge Sir ! I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos !🙏🙏
Very helpful and explained in the simplest terms. Thank you
I am so thankful for your videos , they are very helpful
thank you so much for this information and breaking it down for the average person. I really appreciate it so much.
Thank you for this video. I was just laid off after 16 years so this is my 1st time experiencing a severance package and the legal stipulations
Wow totally wow. Explained really well. Thank you.
Thank you so much your well presented and informative video!
Great video. Hated my old job, old company. I signed a small severance agreement and agreed to keep it quiet. They told me that or be fired. I had several "friends" from work call/txt to ask what happened. Seemed like an intentional fishing expedition to see if I would violate my agreement. My response was "I don't have the energy to get into it. I just want to move on. Wish you the best. Bye ".
Additional point. Most of these agreements stipulate something about unemployment benefits don't they? My old job put they would not contest a favorable decision on unemployment benefits. Originally stated I "resigned" to the state. I filed an appeal and they didn't show up.
I need to get mine ASAP!
Amazingly informative. Your videos led me to call you. Hoping for the best. Thank you!
Thank you for the information to the community. Mery
Amazing informative video as always glad to have you back!!
Can you make a video on how important a job description and why do you sign it
Thank you @@@@@!
Very helpful video. I wish I have known this, before i signed my severance agreement. What are the chances of perusing a wrongful termination after signing a severance agreement ?
Thank so much for your videos man I’m currently studying the laws on my own but your videos helps.
What happens went the company goes bankrupt? can you violated the contract? after severance pay do they qualify for unemployment benefits? When would you expect an employee to be offered a Severance package?
With the latest NLRB ruling that disparagement agreements are nolonger binding in severance agreements. Does it matter to an employee whether they were laid off or fired?
Awesome video!! Good job! You're very nice and personable!! I have a huge termination, no pay for past work and lied about 401 that was stolen and wrongful termination.....the attorneys have been a MAJOR pain and hold up to find in Wisconsin. What would you do first in this matter?? Should I make up a severance agreement, give them a chance to respond and if denied?? We are struggling and need these issues solved, ASAP. THANK U, FOR THE KNOWLEDGE YOU SHARE!!
For anyone watching this after 2023, companies can no longer add in non disparagement clauses or confidentiality in severance agreements. The NLRB recently ruled on this.
Are these terms effective on and after the date you sign the agreement right? Not before?
You're hired.

Severance agreement left out the OWBPA regarding the employee who is over the age of 40 and gave them 8 days to respond.
Does this void the agreement?
Do you have a video of a company not paying the amount of a pension and letting you see the formula to make sure that no errors were made?
What should you do if they put you on a PIP, before they try to fire you?
Great this new law went into effect early in 2023, but I wonder if an NDA would still be lawful to prevent disclosures: “‘A severance agreement is unlawful if it precludes an employee from assisting coworkers with workplace issues concerning their employer, and from communicating with others, including a union, and the Board, about his employment,’ the National Labor Relations Board wrote in its decision Tuesday.” Does anyone know?
I am going to be given a severance deal and I am over the age of 40. Will the company really let me take 21 days to make a decision? And is this still working or without working?
Are confidentiality clauses illegal per new ruling?
thing pertaining to these things are different in Canada . one thing is i notice its quite common to have "at will" employment in United States . however that type of employment is illegal up here in Canada . if its found in any contract , it get thrown out immediately and the drafter of said contract will be fined.
Hi do you know a lawyer in Canada? we are looking for some one to help us
@@dtr_DoTheRighThing sorry i dont , what seems to be the issue?
I want to revoke my signature but I'm affraid that I won't be able to because I am not 40. I hope I can find a way to revoke due to the nature of my termination.
Do you have any examples of something that should be a red flag in a severance package?
I’m in New York, after 15 years, live in housekeeper 24/7, 365 I got severance, unemployment denied me. I needed some extra money for food!!!
U should franchise.
Can you get fired after visiting Las vegas
If you are just a regular employee and your employer offers you a severance agreement to get you out, that usually means the employer has done something wrong to you and wants to shut your mouth up. You definitely should see a lawyer.
If you are an executive and get an severance package upon stepping down or being fired, that's usually the executive had done something wrong. And they get a lot of money for doing something wrong and leave.
I’ll paste info to see if anyone knows them
Why no new video?
Can you still sue your employer after signing the severance agreement and release agreement?
Same question
The video says no. That's the whole point of it that you cannot sue.
Branigan you never answered. Do you think dietary preference ought to be a protected characteristic?
"ought to," or not - regardless, it's not protected. Silly question.
@@frankthefkintank It borders on so many things that are protected though, especially disability and religion and maybe even age.
I don’t agree or would accept the 1099 for the settlement. Why should you get penalized with picking up payroll taxes and indemnification on 400k. Let them “accurately” calculate and pick up the other half of ER side.
You’re very wise and well spoken. Can I take you out for dinner? Lol
I have hackers on my network

50% of severance pay goes to law firm and so depending on case by case the severance can be small or large it is law firm can have better knowledge on which is winnable and which case is not or in some case it is more of the national survival on the case rather than money involved even though money is important but in case like general McArthur is involved many generation and many countries livelihood after the relief of the general Mc Cathur if not China and Asia is much different than now and slavery would not exist in Asia if American finished the job in the Korean War rightly because the united nation was with the south Korean back then to legitimate the finish by any mean of the extremist wing of chairman Mao. But because the general was relieved led to vietnam war , then Iraq war then Afghanistan war then 9/11 then the 2008 economic collapse and the car industry kept on abusing drivers and now computer then smartphone torturing younger generation
Lol. Of course your colleagues have an interest in knowing how much you got, it'll help them put their offer in context. But a lawyer wouldn't advocate for that, bc then they'd be out of business.
Are you married ♡
My ex employer is getting sued by me and they keep trying to make me take a severance agreement.
How did it go
@@ubcroel4022 i won the case
