Real Negotiation Leverage - More Money, More Moxie
Strategy #1: Hidden Asset Recovery
We'll conduct forensic review of your employment record to uncover uncredited overtime, vacation miscalculations, and missing expense reimbursements that companies often "overlook" in final calculations, recovering money you're already owed.
Strategy #2: Regulatory Violation Leverage
We'll investigate potential legal violations affecting your entire workforce, calculating potential penalty exposure. We'll use this massive liability as leverage to increase your individual severance by positioning the enhanced package as cost-effective risk mitigation compared to mass exposure.
Strategy #3: Intellectual Property Protection
We'll negotiate specific carve-outs for your personal projects and industry relationships developed before employment, protecting future earning potential. We'll argue that overly broad IP assignments are unenforceable and could expose the company to litigation.
Strategy #4: Multi-State Compliance Leverage
We'll identify violations of California's specific legal requirements in their standard template and use these compliance gaps to negotiate an increase and enhancing your package.
Strategy #5: Clawback Protection
We'll demonstrate that mitigation clauses discourage job-seeking and violate California public policy encouraging employment, resulting in clause removal plus material increases for you.
Strategy #6: Bonus and Commission Recovery
We'll demonstrate that sales attributed to your efforts will generate revenue in following quarters, creating legal obligation for commission payment beyond your termination date under California law.
