FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions St. John's clients ask first

How quickly do I need to get my severance reviewed?

As soon as possible — most severance offers include a signing deadline, and once signed, the release typically can’t be undone.

Does a review cost anything if I decide not to negotiate?

Your initial consultation is free; we’ll tell you plainly if your offer already looks fair before recommending anything further.

Can my employer withdraw the offer if I try to negotiate?

It’s uncommon and can carry its own legal risk for the employer — we’ll advise on how to approach negotiation professionally and without unnecessary risk.
