Settlement Agreements

Settlement Agreements provide a way for you to leave an employment relationship with your professional reputation intact and a financial settlement to ensure you can pay your bills whilst you search for another position. The alternative – bringing a claim in the Employment Tribunal – can take many months and can be stressful for you and your family.

Our specialist Employment Law Solicitors can negotiate a generous settlement package on your behalf, which can include financial and non-financial benefits.
