Answer: To determine how much severance you are entitled to, a court will examine your age, length of service, position, and the availability of similar employment opportunities in the marketplace. That is, the older you are, the longer you've worked there, and the more senior or specialized your position, the greater the severance package. Based on what you have indicated, you would be entitled to between 6 and 8 months' severance pay.
