Severance and unemployment, do they overlap?, project coordinator here

I was offered severance of 11 weeks after being let go as a project coordinator and I am unsure how it affects benefits. I have a mortgage and need to plan. Who should I ask before signing?

Before signing, I asked a friend who is a lawyer to look at the agreement. It was a short conversation and worth it.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
