San Francisco Executive Compensation & Exit Strategy/Negotiations Attorneys

Executive candidates often underestimate their contributions to the hiring business in today’s competitive employment market. They hold off retaining an employment lawyer to help arrange their contracts since they wish to avoid coming across as demanding or ungrateful. The truth is, however, that businesses expect that you will be represented, and it’s much easier to work alongside a lawyer when the process starts than to wait until things go awry.

Issues covered in an employment contract typically include:

  • Performance metrics
  • Health benefits
  • Severance packages
  • Restrictive covenants
  • Employment benefits
  • Bonuses
  • Pensions
  • Stock options

Negotiating Severance Package Benefits

The terms of a severance agreement can dramatically impact how you are able to move forward with your career. Jeannette can advise you of your legal rights and help you develop a sound exit strategy. She can also negotiate with your employer in order to protect your rights and maximize your compensation package.

Usually, employees who are laid off due to workplace reorganization, restructuring, or downsizing are the only ones who receive severance compensation. However, terminated employees are sometimes granted severance benefits in recognition of their work. Employers usually make employees sign a Separation Agreement and General Release that outlines their entitlement to severance pay.

During the early stages of employment, senior-level employees are able to negotiate their severance packages. An experienced lawyer can often modify or remove questionable provisions alongside receiving better health benefits and higher pay. Jeannette will negotiate your severance package in order to protect your rights and maximize your compensation.
