Redundancy & settlement agreements

 

Finding yourself at risk of redundancy or transferred to another employer as part of an outsourcing exercise can be a very stressful time. We can help alleviate some of that stress by providing you with clear, practical advice on the consultation process, explaining whether you have any potential claims or assisting with negotiating severance terms.

If you are about to be made redundant or your employment terminated and have been given a settlement agreement on which you have been told to take independent legal advice, we can help you.
