A severance agreement (often called a compromise agreement) covers ending an employment relationship on agreed terms, including a financial settlement and waiving claims. A solicitor helps by drafting and negotiating the document, checking that the terms are fair, identifying any post‑termination obligations, and ensuring the client understands what is being waived. They advise on minimum statutory protections, reference checks, and any garden leave, garden leave, or restrictive covenants, and prepare any supporting documentation for a clean exit.
