    Default Leaving an Employer After Receiving Relocation Benefits

    My question involves business law in the state of: TX

    I moved to TX and received relocation expenses from my employer (a large company) upon accepting an offer of employment. I would like to leave the employer as I don't believe it's a good place to work. I would like to avoid having to reimburse the company for the relocation expenses, although I signed a 1-page document indicating that I would reimburse them if I did not complete at least 1 year in my job. Is there anything that can be done? Although they have indicated recently that my roles and responsibilities will be changing very soon, in the last 4 months since I started they have assigned me things I feel are not related to the profession or what would normally be expected of someone with my title.

    Only an attorney in your state who has read the document in question can tell you whether it is enforceable or not, or in what circumstances it might be void.

    Agree, I would take the document to an employment or contract attorney in your area for review. He/she should be able to tell you whether the document would be considered a contract and/or enforceable.
    Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
