Folkestone, a Channel port town, is in Kent, but the law around settlement agreements is the same wherever you're based. If your employer in Folkestone has offered you a settlement agreement, the law requires you to take independent legal advice before it becomes binding. We advise employees and employers throughout Folkestone and across Kent, translating the legal jargon into plain English and making sure nothing in the document works against you.
The law deliberately makes independent advice a condition of a valid settlement agreement. Once we have advised you and signed the certificate confirming it, the agreement becomes binding — but only after you fully understand the deal and are satisfied it is right for you.
When we review a settlement agreement for a client in Folkestone, we look closely at:
For most people the advice costs them nothing. The settlement agreement itself will usually set out a contribution from your employer towards your legal fees, and that figure typically covers our work in full. Where a matter is more complex, we agree any difference with you before we start.
We know these deadlines rarely wait. For clients in Folkestone we can normally turn around a full review and advice within a day, and we keep same-day slots open for urgent cases. Call us on 020 3058 3365.
We also act for employers in Folkestone and across Kent, drafting robust settlement agreements, managing redundancy and exit processes, and defending Employment Tribunal claims with commercially minded advice.
We also advise clients across the neighbouring areas of London, Canterbury, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells.
