    A settlement agreement in England is a legally binding deal to end your employment on agreed terms after confidential negotiations, often following a dispute or potential claim. A solicitor helps draft the agreement, check the settlement sum and any statutory payments, and review confidentiality, reference and non-disparagement clauses. They also coordinate with the employer’s solicitor, gather payroll and contractual documents, and ensure the agreement is enforceable and fair under employment law before you sign.

    “Honestly, the reassurance and level of respect these ladies have from the off is just second to none. I was SUPER anxious and needed some speed with my query and Helen Young, Milly Baxendale and Sharon Hundal did exactly that. Sharon was even due to go on holiday yet offered to sign a document whilst away and took the time to take my mental health at the time in account with all things considered. I have used BMTC for conveyancing and now for employment law help - I honestly, couldn't ask for a better team of ladies. (Theres gents there also but I have only dealt with the ladies until now haha!)”
