Settlement
agreements are very important documents that are written contracts drawn up and
signed by both the employee and the employer. It usually works out that the
employer will consent to pay a specific salary amount for which the employee
agrees not to raise any other legal claims or claimed they have been dismissed
by unfair means. Settlement agreements may also concern the employment or
termination of services as well. These
are lengthy complicated documents and so should be drawn up by expert hands
such as those at Analysis Legal Employment Law
Solicitors Cheshire. Employers can seek employment advice from them or
ask them to draw up the settlement and similarly an employee can consult these
lawyers before accepting a settlement agreement.
Only experienced
employment lawyers are capable of drawing up or advising
on such documents, and the Cheshire employment solicitors have hundreds of such
agreements under their belt. They do this for both the employers and the
employees depending on the request received.
It is
important for you to understand the role of these employment solicitors because
the settlement agreements could become invalid if counseling is not taken from
them. The lawyers at this company are qualified and insured to provide these
services to employees, and they will advise employees on what to accept and
what they have to offer in return. This is important because it is often the
basis on which disputes are generated.
If the settlement agreement is not acceptable to an employee, the solicitors
will negotiate another one that is more favorable.
An employer
would be wise to take the advice of an Employment
Law Solicitors Stockport when they wish to reduce the size of a project
that would require the termination of some employees. Most companies do this
when they want to restructure, but they usually require legal assistance from
employment solicitors to execute the process. The process is quite lengthy, and
the employer will, therefore, need legal guidance. The firm of solicitors may
offer to help terminate the employment contract of a certain employee or
employees depending on the requirement for a fixed fee that would be highly
cost efficient.
