Could someone explain why I would want to sign an "agreement not to sue" contract while being fired? It seems like I would need to take some time to evaluate the situation externally, rather than just agreeing immediately. Asking me to sign that while in the process of being fired is making an awkward situation even more awkward. Perhaps I'm not looking at this correctly?
- jdavis703 11y agoThere's usually money attached. So you can risk a drawn out trial with all kinds of expenses, or just take some cash up front.
- shortstuffsushi 11y agoTo both you and exelius, got it. Missed the part about there being a cash incentive not to sue. I thought it was just agreeing with no incentive on your part.
- exelius 11y agoBecause they are paying you not to sue them. You'll take home more money if you take the offer; hiring a lawyer to sue them is expensive.
