Settlement agreements can be complex, time critical and full of legal detail that really matters. Getting clear, independent advice isn’t just required by law — it protects your future.

At Ramsdens Solicitors, our employment law specialists advise employees on settlement agreements every day, ensuring terms are fair, risks are understood, and nothing important is overlooked. 

 

What is a Settlement Agreement and how can we help?

A Settlement Agreement is a written deal between an employee and their employer under which the employee generally agrees to end their employment in return for compensation, and agrees not to take the employer to an Employment Tribunal. These are very common and help avoid the stress, time and cost of a potential tribunal claim.

For the agreement to be legally binding, the employee must always take advice from an independent solicitor before signing it. Your employer will usually contribute the full cost of this advice so it’s very unlikely it will cost you anything. 

We offer a quick turnaround and clear, jargon free advice along with over 20 years’ experience to get you the best outcome
