Settlement Agreement Advice in Newham

Newham, home to the London 2012 Olympic Park, is in east London, but the law around settlement agreements is the same wherever you're based. Whether you have been made redundant, managed out, or offered a package to leave quietly, a settlement agreement in Newham should never be signed without advice. We act for people right across East London, checking every clause — payment, notice, references and restrictions — before anything is finalised.

Why You Need Independent Legal Advice

A settlement agreement is only legally binding once you have received advice from an independent adviser, such as a qualified solicitor, on its terms and their effect on your ability to bring a claim. That safeguard exists to protect you — and it is why employers almost always contribute towards your legal fees.

What We Check in Your Agreement

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

  • The size and structure of the termination payment, and whether any of it can be paid tax-free.
  • Your notice pay, holiday pay and any outstanding bonus or commission.
  • Post-termination restrictions, such as non-compete and non-solicitation clauses.
  • The contribution your employer is making towards your legal costs.

The Cost to You

In the vast majority of cases, your employer pays. It is standard practice for the employer to contribute towards your legal costs as part of the deal, and in most straightforward matters that contribution covers our fee in full — so there is nothing for you to pay.

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