Executive Compensation and Severance Negotiation Considerations

Many employees, especially at the executive level, approach an offer of employment as a “take it or leave it” proposition. Similarly, employees who have been terminated without an offer of a severance package often walk away from their employment without understanding their rights and the potential leverage they may have to obtain better terms upon termination. This course is a primer on how executives can negotiate better compensation and severance packages. Join partner Yogi Patel of Lloyd Patel LLP for this discussion.
