Employment Litigation
Severance Agreement
If your employment has been terminated, it is often useful to review the circumstances with an experienced attorney, particularly to determine if your rights have been violated and/or to secure the best terms in a severance package. Similarly, if you have not been paid for work done, you want a skilled and knowledgeable lawyer to help you win the compensation you earned and deserve, typically in a Labor Board proceeding.
