Top 10 of 3,549 law firms for Severance Agreement, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A solicitor provides professional accountability, regulatory protections, and a client‑funded process that minimises the risk of overlooked rights or future disputes. They verify the agreement’s terms, ensure appropriate protections, and handle communications with the employer and any other parties, while safeguarding client funds and ensuring correct adherence to required formalities.

Julie GrangerLeigh Anne Prebble-Benn

Tagged solicitors Julie Granger and Leigh Anne Prebble-Benn

Dear Julie, I was made redundant in July and was advised by my company to speak with a solicitor about my redundancy settlement. Not only was I upset and worried about the situation, but also very scared and nervous about contacting a solicitor as this was all new to me. I contacted Kingsfords and spoke firstly to Jacqueline Chappell, who was very helpful and gave clear instructions on what I needed to send to her. Jacqueline immediately made me feel much better and told me that it would be Leigh Prebble-Benn who I would have my telephone appointment with. When I first read through my settlement agreement I didn't really understand what it all meant and so when Leigh took the time to read through it line by line to explain things in simpler terms, it wasn't so overwhelming. Leigh also gave clear instructions on what I needed to do next and everything was all done quickly. It was also very lovely to know that I could contact Leigh if I had any other concerns. Their professionalism and kindness is outstanding and I wanted to thank them both as I am truly grateful. Best wishes and kind regards

Guy Salter provided excellent service, explained everything in a “language” I understood, gave valued advice and negotiated a mutually agreeable settlement. I would highly recommend SME Solicitors.

Emma Saunders

Tagged solicitor Emma Saunders

We recently engaged Emma Saunders to assist in negotiating a settlement agreement with a departing employee. As an employer, our priority was to reach an amicable resolution while ensuring the business was fully protected from future claims. Emma provided excellent guidance on drafting the terms that were tailored to our specific situation. The process was completed swiftly, with clear communication at every stage. For any business owner looking for a solicitor who understands both the legal technicalities and the commercial risks of employment law, I cannot recommend Emma Saunders highly enough.
