Clarity and Confidence When Facing a Settlement Agreement

Being offered a Settlement Agreement by your employer can feel overwhelming and uncertain. This important document sets out the terms of your departure, including any payments and conditions for moving forward.

At Portway Solicitors, you are never alone when facing employment challenges. Our expert team guides you, explains your options clearly and is by your side every step of the way - so you can move forward with confidence and genuine peace of mind.

What You Need to Know About Settlement Agreements

A Settlement Agreement is a contract between you and your employer that usually:

  • Ends your employment on terms you both agree
  • Sets out payments, benefits, or references you will receive
  • Includes clauses about future claims or confidentiality
To protect your rights, the law requires you to get independent legal advice before you sign. This ensures you understand every part of the agreement and that it works in your best interests.

Why Expert Legal Advice Is Essential, Not Optional

Clear, independent legal advice is essential before you sign. With the right guidance, you will:

  • Understand exactly what you are agreeing to
  • Avoid any unwanted restrictions or unfair conditions
  • Make sure you receive a settlement that reflects your true rights and entitlements
At Portway Solicitors, our priority is making everything clear and fair. Giving you the confidence in every decision you make.
