Based in Sheffield we are able to provide advice and support with settlement agreements and general employment disputes.
Our solicitors and legal team offer specialist legal advice regarding settlement packages and we able to provide the relevant advice and support you'll need at this time.
In the event you have been made redundant your employer will usually insist on an agreed redundancy package in the form of a settlement agreement. These documents were formally known as compromise agreements and they represent an agreement between two parties. ie. the employer and employee.
It is a legally-binding document that you will be asked to enter into, and you will be asked to obtain legal advice prior to accepting the terms being offered to you.
The agreement will usually include the following information:
A waiver on your part for any future claim against your employer
What will happen to any company property
Your date of departure
Your payment for leaving (including a gratuity)
Our Sheffield settlement agreement solicitors can advice you on the terms you are being offered and potentially help you obtain a better deal. We can also provide support negotiating a better reference from your employer, as well as loosening any restrictive covenants dictating where you can work in the future.
