Termination Letter Review

Whether you are an employee who just received a termination letter or an employer planning to let someone go, this package provides a clear legal assessment of the severance package. We review the termination letter and any severance offer against Ontario's Employment Standards Act minimums and common law entitlements, and provide a plain-English opinion on whether the package is fair, legal, and what — if anything — you can do about it.
