Summary: This is the ONE to buy
Comment: If you buy one book to help you if you're fired, I recommend this one without hesitation. I found the advice and recommendations invaluable. In a coherent, sensible approach, Mr. Sklover's experience shows through. At times he seemed to read my mind as he methodically covered my concerns as well as introduced topics that had not occurred to me. He translated the legal jargon into plain English, rendering the advice both understandable and useful. The list of more than 100 negotiating points is alone worth the price of the book. I think "this is the one" on this topic.

Summary: Very, very helpful for the non-lawyer
Comment: This book helped me and my husband calm down, get organized, and go back to his boss in an effective way to get a better severance package. It was easy to read, informative, encouraging and sincere. And it worked for us! Mr. Sklover has written a great book that will help many people. I highly recommend it for anyone facing job loss.

Summary: A Great Source of Empowerment
Comment: As a hospital staff employee with job security concerns, I read Mr. Sklover's book after it was recommended to me by a nurse. I would recommend it to others, at all levels, without question. In this book Mr. Sklover provides a clear and concise guide to help anyone develop a proactive stance in severence negotioation, and makes it so abundantly clear that anyone can do this sort of negotiating for him- or herself. The format is consumer friendly, and the book prepares the reader for the relevant issues, whether or not advance notice of job loss has been already provided or, as in my case, if you're just concerned that "notice" may be given to you in the future. This book provided me with a sense that I can cope with this terrible experience I'm facing and that I might even be able to "turn the tables" around. Mr. Sklover reminds us that we must combine our internal and external lives to produce powerful change. The book is a real motivator, because even if you're on the right track and just sit there facing a job loss, you'll just get run over. Mr. Sklover shares his insight that no- one can make you feel inferior or powerless without your consent. Hats off to an empowering book-for everyone who needs to feel less powerless at a very vulnerable time. If you have a gut feeling about job insecurity, put it on your own "Must Read" list. Its really such a great book.
