Legal Question in Employment Law in New York
I was laid off a few months due to my position being eliminated after 11 years. After signing the severance package I found out that the other assistant has taken my position and I was at the company longer and more qualified. Since I signed the severance package can I still sue?

There is no way for an attorney to give you a definitive answer without seeing the agreement; however, based on my experience such agreements usually contain a no-suit provision. Therefore, it is best for you to consult with an employment law attorney for a one-on-one consultation for a more definitive answer to your question.
