Add Comment Question: I worked in a car dealership for 19 years. My capacity was sales, then sales manager, Then fleet manager for the last 11 years. My sales has increased huge in the fleet dept. one day I was let go because " they no longer needed my services". I was paid 19 weeks severance and 8 weeks in place of notice. This is ESA rules, not common law. A lawyer tells me I have to wait 19 months to sue. I disagree. I think I deserve 19 months pay, not 19 weeks. I am 63 years old and to start over in another dealership would not replace my customary $70,000 a year. Answer: That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Of course you don't have to wait. You could be owed as much as 24 months compensation. Please give me a call to discuss this right away.
