How do I handle dOGE layoff with inadequate severance?

On mobile so apologies for formatting. Quick background on my situation in Washington — any input appreciated.

DOGE layoff with inadequate severance. I've been dealing with this for about 8 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 9 years. My position is exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. Standard disclaimer: talk to an actual attorney for your case.

I've dealt with this before.

In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.
