How We Work

Getting advice on a settlement agreement should be simple and fast. Here is what the process looks like when you come to us.

Send us your agreement
Email us a copy of your settlement agreement. We will confirm a consultation time — in most cases on the same day. No lengthy intake forms, no waiting weeks for an appointment.

Your consultation
A specialist employment solicitor will talk you through the agreement in plain English. We focus on the things that actually matter: what you are being paid, what claims you are giving up, and whether any restrictive covenants are reasonable, for example.

Our approach
We will support you through the settlement agreement process. We’re here to explain the agreement, ensure you get the right advice, and to make this time and decision as stress-free as possible.

Sign-off
When you are ready to proceed, your solicitor countersigns the agreement as your independent legal adviser — a legal requirement for the agreement to be valid and binding. We handle the paperwork and send everything where it needs to go.
