Would I be able to collect any severance.Its been a little over a year now. . Answer: Unfortunately, this sounds like a resignation, in which case you would not likely be owed any severance. However, if your situation was more complicated than an outright resignation, I would encourage you to give us a call at the number below to discuss your situation in more detail.
