Employment full and final releases contain payment obligations, conditional timelines, and non-disclosure requirements that are triggered by execution. This example shows how DueCounsel structures those obligations for review.
In consideration of the payment of $35,000 (less applicable withholdings), the Employee releases the Employer from all claims. Payment shall be made within 14 business days of execution of this Agreement. The Employee shall return all company property, access cards, and devices by April 25, 2026. The Employee agrees not to disclose the terms of this settlement to any third party. This Agreement may not be executed after May 15, 2026.

Why this matters
Employment settlements have execution deadlines that, if missed, void the offer. The payment deadline is often not tracked once the release is signed, leaving the client without recourse if payment is late.
Lawyer review required
The payment deadline is computed from the execution date. Calendar it immediately after the release is signed — not before.
