Compromise Agreement Advice.

Time is always of the essence when, as an employee, you become aware of circumstances which give rise to a severence or compromise agreement. But so is access to legal expertise. If you are given or told that you have received a compromise agreement, you will also be told (and it is the law) that a lawyer certifies the same. Only then can you receive the payment and other benefits due to you under the agreement. We will advise you on your compromise agreement, advise you on it and once you are happy with it, provide the appropriate certification thereby making it a legally binding document.

Here at Bridgewater Chambers, you get:

a fully qualified, experienced and practising barrister, who will - subject to advice - certify your compromise agreement;
a barrister who is friendly, accessible but - most vitally - very experienced in providing advice on compromise agreements direct to clients;
expertise in undertaking negotiations (where necessary) in order to optimise your exit;
a barrister who is keen to try to ensure that there is no cost to you for your compromise agreement...

...all of which means that you are in safe hands from start to finsh.

And because we do most of our work by telephone and mail/email, no matter where you live, there is...



So whether you have been merely offered a compromise agreement or actually already have a copy of the proposed compromise agreement, you will be keen to ensure that your rights are properly protected. Indeed, the law requires that in relation to your compromise agreement (otherwise known as a severance agreement) you ARE properly protected by reason of having independent legal advice from a fully qualified and practising lawyer.

For independent, confidential and free initial no-obligation advice, please complete the quick response form to the right hand side of this page and we will be pleased to assist you.

We look forward to hearing from you for a free, confidential and no-obligation initial conversation.

Kind Regards,
