Add Comment Question: My boss is a lawyer ready to retire soon. Has not given any notice, but now wants to incorporate his business. If he incorporates, I heard that severance does not need to be paid. Is this true? I'm 52, worked for 33 yrs as law clerk. Answer: No, incorporation of a business should not affect your severance entitlements, although it would be important to discuss the details of the situation in more detail in order to provide proper advice.
