    Severance work in England covers how employees are legally ended from their job, including dismissal, redundancy and negotiated settlement terms. A solicitor in this area helps you understand what compensation or settlement is fair, drafts or reviews settlement agreements, negotiates terms with your employer, and advises on rights during redundancy consultations and unfair dismissal claims. The work matters because proper handling can protect entitlements and avoid costly disputes.

    Tim Edgeley Your solicitor Tim Edgeley Partner in Employment Law 5.0 from 1 client review
    “I am so grateful for the service I have received from Poole Alcock LLP as a whole, but also more specifically from Rachel Day. Rachel and the team have been extremely supportive and helpful. Correspondence was always extremely detailed and answered all my concerns. The team put my mind at ease and ensured I knew what I was entitled to when I was going through a stressful and unnerving time. I would not be in the position I am in now without the expert advice I received from Poole Alcock LLP. Very happy the service. ”

    “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.”
