Washington DC Severance Agreements Attorney
Protecting Your Interests Regarding Employee Hiring, Separation & Severance Agreements
During the life cycle of employment, an employee or an employer may need assistance with background screening, hiring agreements, discrimination complaints and HR investigations, and severance arrangements.
Various companies require new employees to execute contracts that contain provisions governing the terms of an employee’s separation from the company, such as:
- Trade secrets
- Confidentiality provisions
- Restrictive covenants
Likewise, when an employee is terminated, a company will include a general release to the severance package that must be carefully reviewed by an attorney to protect the rights of an employee or the company.
