My employment agreement says i'm only entitled to 8 weeks of severance and the company is about to be purchased by another large firm and, since i now work remotely (have for 10 years), i will not have a position as they do not allow remote work. I've been with the firm since 2003 in various Management roles (currently Operations Manager). I went Part time in January 2025 after taking 2 months off to work through some health issues. My salary was pro-rated to 48% when i returned at part-time. I have always been a loyal, dedicated and highly valued employee. Should i seek a lawyer to determine if more severance is appropriate?

Thank you for your inquiry. You may be entitled to a significantly larger severance package. We will have to review additional details to provide an accurate assessment. Please contact us at the number below to schedule a formal consultation.
