A quick and easy way to create a solicitor drafted and legally binding Settlement agreement
About this service
If an employer and employee are in dispute then they may formally settle that dispute by entering into a legally binding contract called a settlement agreement (previously known as a compromise agreement). A settlement agreement can be used to settle any disputes which would otherwise have to be settled by the employment tribunal or court. A settlement agreement will usually provide an employee with compensation. In return, the employee will agree not to pursue any legal claim that he or she may have against the employer (as well as agreeing to any further conditions that the employer may impose). This document is suitable for use in the UK only.
This product is suitable for use in:
England & Wales
A 'Settlement agreement' (formerly known as a 'Compromise agreement') can be used to settle a dispute between an employer and employee and to terminate an employment contract.
There are a number of steps required for the compliant disciplining of employees, which all employers should adhere to if they are to avoid potentially expensive lawsuits.
