aI replacing my position without severance — what are my options?

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

AI replacing my position without severance. I've been dealing with this for about 16 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 4 years. My position is non-exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I've dealt with this before.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Following this thread — Commenting so I can find this later. Very relevant to my situation.

Every time I see a post like this...

The thing that gets people is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead sadly.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
