Senior Employee Rights in England cover high-level protections for senior executives and staff with substantial contracts, bonuses, share plans, restrictive covenants, and termination terms. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates executive employment contracts, negotiates settlements, reviews bonus and incentive schemes, and advises on restrictive covenants, garden leave, notice, and post-termination restrictions. They also assist with disputes over bonuses, severance, and the enforceability of non-compete or non-solicit clauses, as well as related claims in Employment Tribunal or courts when required.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor handles provisions, structures and interactions that generate difficulty: detailed drafting of executive contracts, interplay of discretionary and guaranteed bonuses, share schemes, change-in-control protections, and post-termination restrictions; negotiation of settlements; and navigating potential disputes in the Employment Tribunal or court, including issues of breach, notice and enforceability, and safeguarding the client’s position through regulatory and contractual mechanisms.
