Settlement (compromise) agreements

If you have been provided with a settlement agreement from your employer, it’s wise to seek legal advice from a professional. They can carefully review the terms of the agreement and ensure that it aligns with your needs and the particular situation, guiding you through any part of the agreement you may not understand or wish to understand better.

Unfortunately, you may be presented with a settlement which doesn’t match your expectations. If this is applicable, there are potentially ways to negotiate the settlement into one that better suits you, your circumstances and your interests.

Our solicitors dealing with employment issues can assist you with this process. We will provide advice on your employment rights, what we believe is a more suitable settlement outcome and how to approach negotiations with your employer to achieve this.

Dismissals and disciplinaries

Facing a disciplinary at work can be a very scary prospect. Many people aren’t clear on their rights in such situations, which can lead them to accepting an outcome that may not be fair. Our team will be happy to advise you if you are facing a disciplinary, including what outcome you can realistically expect and what points you should raise to help secure the best outcome for you.

If you are facing dismissal or have been dismissed, our employment law specialists can provide urgent advice on what to do next. In some cases, it may be possible to make a claim for unfair dismissal or wrongful dismissal if the reasons you were let go are not valid or the correct process was not followed.

Learn more about our expertise with dismissals and disciplinaries.

Employment contracts

Employment contracts are often long and full of many different provisions. It is important to fully understand the terms of an agreement before signing, especially if you are a senior employee with significant legal obligations under the contract.

Our employment lawyers can provide clear advice on the terms of a contract, so you are confident about what you are agreeing to. Where appropriate, we can also negotiate with a prospective employer to secure enhanced terms that suit your requirements.

Employment issues and tribunal claims

In our experience, most employment issues can be resolved amicably at an early stage with the right expert advice and support. Our team can provide fast advice on your rights and options, so you know where you stand. If negotiation is required, we can support you, as well as guide you through early conciliation where appropriate.

If you are in a situation that requires you to go to an employment tribunal to receive an outcome, it can feel daunting and scary, but you don’t have to face it alone. Our solicitors understand how difficult an employment dispute can be, especially one that cannot be solved easily through alternative dispute resolution.

When you choose to work alongside our experts, we will ensure you are properly prepared for tribunal. Our specialist employment solicitors in Farnham, Reading and Wokingham can assist with drafting a strong argument to present, with all of the necessary supporting evidence and we can represent you during tribunal proceedings.

Employment status, IR35 & related issues

For an increasing number of people, their employment status is not always clear. This is a really important point to clarify as it can have implications for a range of issues, including what your rights are and what benefits you should receive.

We can advise you on your employment status, so you know how you should be treated by your employer. If a dispute has arisen about your employment status, we can help to resolve the situation in a tactful way, preserving your work relationships.

Redundancy and restructuring

Being made redundant is never a pleasant experience. If you find yourself facing redundancy or having been made redundant, it is important to ensure that you are treated fairly and that you get the best possible exit package. Having expert legal advice can make a significant difference.

Our employment law solicitors can advise you on your redundancy rights, including the process your employer needs to follow and what you can expect from your redundancy package. We can assist with negotiating enhanced redundancy packages and support you if you believe you have been unfairly selected for redundancy.

TUPE

When businesses are sold or merge, a service is outsourced, or a service provider changes, your employment may be protected under Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations, commonly called ‘TUPE’. This means your employment should be automatically transferred to the new owner or service provider, and your employment rights protected.

When dealing with a TUPE situation, it is strongly recommended to take legal advice, especially if you are unhappy about the transfer. Our employment solicitors in Farnham, Reading and Wokingham can guide you through a TUPE transfer, making sure your rights are defended.
