Add Comment Question: Hello My question is the following. Can I also sue for lawyers fees on top of my severance ? If I were to sue my employer, can I also sue for lawyers fees, or just the severance ,then the lawyers fees are taken out of that ? Answer: While we would require more information to answer your question, legal fees are always negotiated for in the process of improving a severance offer. I would strongly encourage you to call us and have one of our employment lawyers provide you with a free and confidential consultation (1-844-661-9065). During the consultation the lawyer you meet with will be able to fully explain legal fees and how they are recovered. I would also encourage you to visit the severance pay calculator our firm has developed to see what you are owed (www.SeverancePayCalculator.com).
