Compromise agreements

Compromise Agreements are used at the termination of employment where an employer and employee reach a settlement and undertake not to take any matters before an Employment Tribunal or other court.

If you have already reached an agreement with your Employer they will pay for an independent Solicitor to go through the Compromise agreement to make sure you understand its terms and that the agreement reached is fair to you.

Sometimes when the relationship has broken down with your employer you might wish to propose a compromise agreement to end your employment.

We have Employment Lawyers in Lincoln and Sleaford ready to advise you at short notice in respect of compromise agreements. Call us today on 01522 523215 and we promise to provide you with a same day response and initial free telephone advice.

It can be a relatively simple decision to transfer a business. The practicalities of ensuring you meet all your legal and statutory obligations when transferring a business can be a little more complex.

Employment documentation and policies

There are many advantages to your business from having in place clear and straightforward policies and procedures. Some of the most basic documents that will help you are contracts, job specifications and employee hand books.
