FAQ

Lack of Voluntary Consent: Under California law, a severance agreement can be considered valid and enforceable only if the parties entered into it voluntarily. If your consent was obtained through coercion, duress, or fraud, the agreement will be deemed invalid.

There is no requirement to provide severance in the US and if you were terminated for cause a company generally would not provide it. In general severance is only provided when a company does something like lay you off because of financial conditions or restructuring (if even then).

Arizona law provides for a disqualification from benefits for a variety of reasons, including voluntarily quitting work without good cause related to the employment or discharge for wilful or negligent misconduct connected with the employment.

Nevada. The weekly benefit amount in Nevada is 1/25th of your earnings in the highest quarter of your base period. The minimum weekly benefit amount a Nevadan could receive is $16 and the maximum is $469. If you collect income while on unemployment benefits, Nevada will disregard 1/4 of your wages.

Keep it professional. Use business reasons, such as your performance record or time with the company, when negotiating the terms of your severance package rather than personal details, such as having a baby or buying a house. Be wary of non-compete clauses.

“If any term of this Agreement is to any extent invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, such term shall be excluded to the extent of such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability; all other terms hereof shall remain in full force and effect.”

How to Structure a Severance Agreement Determine Eligibility: Decide which employees will be offered a severance agreement based on company policy or specific circumstances. Consult Legal Counsel: Work with an attorney to draft the agreement to ensure compliance with federal and state laws.

Arizona law provides that an employer may terminate an employee at any time. The term is called “at-will employment.” The legal basis for this is that the employment relationship is considered to be like a contract and at any time either party may decide to end the employment relationship. (A.R.S. § 23-1501).

Arizona is an “at-will” employment state, which means that an employer or an employee can end an employment relationship for any reason or for no reason – but not the wrong reason – unless an employment contract is in place. Most employees do not have a contract and are considered at-will.

The short answer is that an at-will employee is not required to provide two weeks' notice before quitting. Even when there's an offer letter or employee manual that requests an employee to give two weeks' notice before leaving, this doesn't change the at-will status of the employee.
