Has anyone had success negotiating more severance after their time period elapsed? I was given four months, now only one month left but it looks like I won’t find anything for the next two possibly three months.

You might be able to negotiate extended website time but I don’t know why they’d give you more money otherwise when you aren’t earning them any money and don’t work for them anymore? It’s a law firm, not a charity, I am genuinely confused at whether I’m missing something here? Were you let go before even starting to practice?

For context I posted about a week ago about being let go right after taking bar exam and then found out I didn’t pass the bar. So I have to sit for the July Bar and my severance ends July 1.

Ask. Worst case is that they say no. There is only upside in asking.
