Settlement Agreement Lawyers

A Settlement Agreement is a legally binding contract that an employee is normally asked to sign on leaving his or her employment.

Do I need to take legal advice?

Employees are legally required to take independent, qualified advice on the terms and effects of the settlement agreement. Advice from a specialist in employment law is key to understanding what the settlement agreement includes, whether anything is missing, and whether you should accept the offer or seek better terms.

Who pays for my legal advice?

Your employer will usually agree to pay legal fees for you to receive settlement agreement advice. We usually charge a fixed fee to review the agreement and give you advice. The amount can vary depending on the complexity of the agreement.
