Should I negotiate my severance? - first time posting

The company sent a severance agreement with a release of claims, and I am unsure what to do. I have been trying to stay organised about it. It includes health coverage for a couple of months. Should I see a lawyer?

Read the release carefully. Mine included things I did not expect, like a non-compete.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
