Book Description
Written by practicing attorneys with nationwide experience in drafting and litigating employment and separation agreements, Executive Severance Agreements Line by Line is a comprehensive examination of the crucial components included in a severance agreement for an executive. It explains the reasoning behind the various clauses in the agreement and explores the rationale for using different agreements to help meet the specific needs of each client. This book also discusses the difficulty in enforcing certain provisions of the agreement and examines how to draft provisions to maximize the opportunity for enforcement. The authors offer advice on such topics as considering the potential restrictions imposed by IRC Section 409A, understanding the impact of federal statutes and regulations on separation provisions, addressing various states approaches to non-competes, determining the appropriate scope of non-solicitation and non-competition provisions, and analyzing the consideration offered in exchange for a release of claims. Executive Severance Agreements Line by Line is a valuable resource for anyone who has ever negotiated or drafted a severance agreement, as well as for any executive who is about to enter into such an agreement.
