Q: Have cases to rescind a Separation Agreement been won in Alaska, and how would I request public information to review?
First, I am aware that Alaska is an At Will State. Second, I would like to know if there have been any cases in Alaska where a Separation Agreement rescind was granted. If so, how would I go about requesting to review any public information of the case? My husband received a Separation Agreement from employerat the end of April, after 10 years of service, he felt pressured to sign because he did not know how we would provide for our family and agreement stated no benefits or pay would be released until it was signed. To date, we have not received full payment of his time worked or remain vacation time. We received letter from Unemplyment with an entire not factual statement. The employer blacklisted him in the oilfield. Lastly, we attempted to negotiate one thing before signing and employer stated no negotiations would be considered. I very much feel like this agreement was one sided, he felt pressured to sign to provide for our family, and they told Unemployment an unproven statement
A:
If you are over 40 you have 7 days to revoke the separation agreement per the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act.
You can contact me directly to set up a consultation- however, I do charge $300 for an up to an hour phone consult.
