Settlement Agreement Solicitors in Shrewsbury

Settlement Agreement Advice in Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury is a county town and a medieval market town, in Shropshire. Whether you have been made redundant, managed out, or offered a package to leave quietly, a settlement agreement in Shrewsbury should never be signed without advice. We act for people right across Shropshire, checking every clause — payment, notice, references and restrictions — before anything is finalised.

Why You Need Independent Legal Advice

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.

Before You Sign: What We Look At

When we review a settlement agreement for a client in Shrewsbury, we look closely at:

• Whether any statutory or contractual claims are being unfairly signed away.
• The wording of the agreed reference and any announcement to colleagues.
• Post-termination restrictions, such as non-compete and non-solicitation clauses.
• Confidentiality and non-derogatory terms, and whether they are reasonable.

The Cost to You

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.

Working to Your Deadline

We know these deadlines rarely wait. For clients in Shrewsbury 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.
