Being offered a Settlement Agreement can be a very stressful, frightening and emotional time. Our detailed approach to providing bespoke Settlement Agreement advice, tailored to our client’s specific needs, have led to some wonderful reviews, set out below.
What is a Settlement Agreement
In simple terms, a Settlement Agreement is a contract between an employee and an employer. Contracts of this nature generally provide that an employee will leave their employment and agree to waive all legal claims that relate to their employment or the fact the employment has come to an end. In exchange, the employer will usually provide certain benefits, including compensation, and perhaps a reference. More information about these types of agreement can be found on our website at https://lincslaw.co.uk/services/settlement-agreement/
Is a Settlement Agreement Right For You
Settlement Agreements are not right for everyone. In some cases, clients may be advised to consider proceeding with internal employment procedures, such as grievances, redundancy, disciplinary or capability as opposed to continuing with exit discussions. Similarly, in some cases, clients may be advised to consider negotiating on the terms of their Settlement Agreement, because in our view, the existing terms are inadequate to compensate them for the potential claims they have.
In other circumstances, there may be other issues of concern. For example, clients might need to consider future employment and the impact of intended restrictions or poorly worded references could need addressing. Every case is different and requires thorough consideration.
