Settlement Agreement Solicitor in Reading

Settlement Agreement Advice

If you’re in a dispute with your employer or are going through a redundancy process you may be offered a settlement agreement.

Can you be sure the agreement is fair?

Have you been offered sufficient compensation for the loss of your job?

The experienced employment law team at DPH Legal have been advising clients regarding settlement agreement matter for many years.

We also have established offices in the UK and we have given expert settlement agreement advice to many clients throughout the UK.

Settlement Agreement Definition

Settlement agreements are typically received by an employee once their employment has been terminated by their employer. It is a legally binding document or agreement.

An employer gives severance pay to an employee in exchange for them not raising or taking a claim

It usually provides for a severance payment made to the employee from the employer, on the agreement that the employee does not pursue or raise any future claim in an Employment Tribunal.

In order for the settlement agreement to be binding, you will need to take advice from a qualified employment lawyer.

How much will settlement agreement advice cost?

Typically the advice will not cost the employee anything. The employer will cover the costs for the initial legal advice. DPH Legal will always notify a client upfront if any additional fees apply.

How long does the settlement agreement process take?

We endeavour to provide our clients with advice on their settlement agreement the same day we receive it. An experienced senior employment solicitor will handle the call from the get-go through to completion.

In the past, we have given expert advice over the phone and in face-to-face meetings, but for the foreseeable future due to the current Covid-19 restrictions, advice over the phone is the preferred option.
