Settlement Agreements
Why do you need Wildings Specialists?
In the UK, settlement agreements are regulated by specific legal requirements under employment law. For an agreement to be legally binding, the employee must obtain independent legal advice, and the agreement must be put in writing, covering particular disputes or legal actions. Additionally, the legal adviser must be named, and their advice must be insured for protection.
Our lawyers are experienced specialists and proud members of the Employment Lawyers Association. We treat each client as an individual, offering personalised attention and taking our responsibility to you seriously. We don’t deal in vague or generic advice—we provide clear, actionable guidance tailored to your unique situation.
