Welcome to Aeon Solicitors’ dedicated website for settlement agreements (previously called compromise agreements) and redundancy services.
We would be delighted to assist you, whether you are an employee facing redundancy or needing advice about a settlement agreement, or you are a business owner needing to make staff redundant or dismiss an employee for some other reason
Redundancy & Settlement Agreements
Redundancy is well defined and employers should follow a fair redundancy process including identifying and warning staff at an early stage and consulting about suitable alternative work. If the process results in termination then a statutory redundancy payment will be due (according to length of service and age).
Settlement agreements may be offered by an employer that seeks to settle an employee’s legal claims. They are contracts about which the employee will require independent advice from settlement agreement solicitors or other qualified legal advisors.
