Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

Cancel Acceptance of Offer Letter

I recently accepted an offer letter from an employer (a Delaware company) for a position assigned to an office in the state of GA. The offer letter states that employment will be ''at will''. There is no employment contract. Now, I received an offer from a different employer. Can I cancel my acceptance of the original offer letter and accept the new offer? What are the ramnifications?

Re: Cancel Acceptance of Offer Letter

If your employment is at-will, you can quit at anytime. However, there may be some consequences built into the letter if you quit. Have a local attorney review any agreements with your employer and advise you.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
