Severance agreement arrived, need a second opinion, dental hygienist here

I was offered 12 weeks of severance after 12 years as a dental hygienist, and I have a few days to sign. There is a non-disparagement clause. Should I see a lawyer?

An hour with an employment lawyer cost me a small fee and made me feel much safer about signing.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 12 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
