Severance Evaluation and Wrongful Termination Legal Services
Salt Lake City Employment Lawyer
If you have been the target of a recent layoff, you should talk to an experienced employment law attorney to discuss your available options under an offered severance package. When individuals who have been laid off, offered severance packages or wrongfully terminated come to me for guidance, I listen carefully to the details of their situation and put my experience to work for them.
My name is Robert L. Brinton, and as an employment law attorney with more than 42 years' experience, primarily in New York and now in Utah, I represent individuals in wrongful termination suits against former employers, draft and review employment agreements, conduct severance package evaluations and resolve other contract disputes. Before you agree to anything, I can provide you with experienced legal guidance that protects your interests.

The Art of the Severance Package
The creation of a severance package can be seen as an art, not a science. I am skilled in negotiating severance packages and settlements for my clients. If I cannot negotiate a settlement and your employer looks to be litigious, I will discuss with you various means of alternative dispute resolution. I prefer to resolve your dispute prior to the costly step of litigation. You should also consider how protracted litigation would look to future employers. In dealing with employers, including, Fortune 500 companies, I look for anything that will provide leverage:
- Were you named employee of the month?
- Were you consistently a hard worker?
- Did you receive positive reviews?
- How long were you employed?
- Were promises to you kept?
Dealing With Crises in Life
When someone is fired or laid off, it can be one of the real crises of life, as former employees, including top executives and CEOs, deal with an uncertain job market and financial future. My job is to help clients obtain severance packages that are fair and allow for a good transition to other employment opportunities.
