Dismissal and severance
Reviewing what you have been offered before you sign it, and saying plainly whether it is worth more.
A severance agreement is a contract you usually have between seven and twenty-one days to consider, and almost nobody uses that time.
We read it, tell you what you are giving up, and tell you whether the number is negotiable. Often it is. Sometimes it is not, and we say so.
Questions
Do you take contingency cases?
Sometimes, for discrimination and retaliation claims with documented damages. We will say in the first meeting whether yours is one, and we will not string you along if it is not.
How long does an EEOC charge take?
The agency has 180 days before you can request a right-to-sue letter, and in practice most charges take longer than that. Anyone promising a fast resolution is guessing.
Can you take my case if I am outside Florida?
For federal immigration work, yes, anywhere. For employment matters, only where Florida law or a federal claim applies.
