Add Comment Question: I got laid off in April due to "restructuring". It is not almost 3 months later and I have found out they have hired someone for my old position. Is there legal recourse I can take? I did receive pay out for 1 month for every complete year of service. Thanks Answer: The recourse you have available to you depends on whether you received the appropriate amount of severance or not. Use our Severance Pay Calculator to find out how much you should have received, and give us a call at the number below to discuss in more detail.
