[quote=Anonymous]I was in a similar position, at age 58, two years from retirement. Top reviews and bonuses every year, and then....bam! .....lay-off. I was offered a nice severance package to not make a stink about it, along with 21 days to make up my mind. (I believe this 21-day period is mandated by law.) I used that time to consult a lawyer. He told me that I had a definite claim against the company and he would be glad to file, but warned me that the amount the company settles for, minus his cut, may end up being only slightly more than their severance offer. I decided the negative energy wasn't worth it. [/quote]
