Severance arrangements cover ending an employment relationship through redundancy, exit packages, and negotiated settlements. It involves agreeing on terms for leaving, including final pay, accrued holiday, pensions, references, and any post-employment restrictions. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates settlement agreements, reviews the employer’s proposed terms, liaises with the human resources team, and ensures compliance with the Employment Rights Act and related employment standards. They may also advise on the implications of non-compete or confidentiality clauses and help protect the client’s statutory rights during the process.

Samira Cakali
Head of Employment
Works with Teresa Davidson and 3 more
“I honestly can't recommend Winston Solicitors enough. I reached out to them when I was in need of employment law advice and received a call from Samira. She was friendly and gave me some advice when my world had been turned upside down. Samira handled my negotiation for me, along with her excellent colleague Dervinder. They made me feel comfortable, stood up for me and my rights, and negotiated a great package. I would wholeheartedly recommend them and would not hesitate to contact Winston Solicitors if I ever need legal help again.”

Debbie Coyne
Partner
Works with Sylviane Kokouendo and 3 more
“I had just been made redundant and needed expert legal support. After searching for local employment lawyers, I found Slater Heelis and was introduced to Sylviane. From the very start, she was calm, reassuring, and able to take the emotion out of an incredibly stressful situation. Our discovery call immediately showed me that she is a lawyer you can truly partner with. Sylviane’s clear, confident, and humble communication helped me understand the situation fully – what was happening, what should happen, and what to expect next. Together, we agreed on a plan of action, and every step was handled exceptionally well. I was genuinely impressed by the professionalism, work ethic, and support from both Sylviane and the Slater Heelis team. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of employment law advice.”
