Settlement Agreement

What is a Settlement Agreement (formerly known as a Compromise Agreement)?

If you are being made redundant or your employer wants to agree to terminate your contract they may ask you to sign a Settlement Agreement.

Redundancy

Advice on Redundancy

Being made redundant or being put at risk of redundancy can be very stressful. Both employers and employees need advice to be sure that any redundancy process is being conducted properly and fairly.
How can we help?

We aim to offer practical advice about the available options that can be considered during a consultation that can sometimes avoid the necessity of a redundancy.

Wills and probate

A Will gives you the power to decide who should benefit from your estate but also allows you to appoint executors and guardians.


LPAs and Living Wills

A Lasting Power of Attorney for Property and Affairs allows you to name the person or people whom you wish to look after your financial affairs during your lifetime, should you become mentally or physically unable to do so yourself.

An Advance Directive, commonly known as a “Living Will”, is a document which allows you to express your wishes regarding your future medical care now, in case you are unable to do so later.
