Specialist employment solicitors advising on settlement agreements throughout Havering and East London. Free initial assessment — call 020 3058 3365.
Havering, an outer borough bordering Essex, is in east London, but the law around settlement agreements is the same wherever you're based. Being handed a settlement agreement can feel overwhelming, particularly when the deadline is short. If you work in Havering or the surrounding East London area, our specialist employment solicitors will explain exactly what the agreement means, whether the terms are fair, and what could be improved before you sign.
Because you are giving up the right to bring most employment claims, the agreement is not enforceable until an independent solicitor has advised you on what you are signing away. This requirement is in your favour: it means you get proper advice, usually at your employer's expense.
When we review a settlement agreement for a client in Havering, we look closely at:
Almost always, yes. Employers routinely include a contribution towards the employee's legal fees, precisely because independent advice is a legal requirement. In the majority of cases in Havering that contribution meets our costs entirely, and we will tell you up front if it does not.
We know these deadlines rarely wait. For clients in Havering 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.
For employers throughout East London, we draft and negotiate settlement agreements, advise on fair process, and represent businesses in tribunal proceedings — helping you resolve employment issues quickly and cleanly.
We also advise clients across the neighbouring areas of London, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Greenwich.
