How to Handle a Severance When You Have a Non-Solicit Clause

This episode digs into a specific severance trap: the non-solicit clause. Lucas and Luna walk through a real case of a marketing director who couldn't contact former clients for six months after her layoff. They explain what non-solicits typically cover, how they differ from non-competes, and three strategies you can use before signing: narrowing the definition of 'client', limiting the time window, and carving out a specific list of contacts you can keep. The hosts also cover what to do if you've already signed and need to pivot your job search to avoid triggering the clause. Plus, Lucas shares a negotiation tactic he learned from an employment lawyer: asking HR to state in writing that the non-solicit does not apply to general professional listings or LinkedIn outreach. No fluff, just one concrete angle with actionable steps. #Severance #NonSolicit #JobLoss #Layoff #EmploymentLaw #Careers #Negotiation #JobSearch #NonCompete #ExitPackage #HR #WorkplaceRights #Termination #JobTransition #EmployeeRights #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheLayoffPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
