Settlement agreements typically include a contribution from your employer towards your independent legal advice, usually between £350 plus VAT and £750 plus VAT. We work within that figure. In most cases, you pay nothing at all, and your employer covers the cost entirely.
You’re in the right place. We’ll review your agreement, advise you honestly and make sure you don’t sign anything that isn’t in your best interests.

Greater Manchester is home to around 280,000 people employed in financial and professional services. This includes major employers, such as the BBC and ITV at MediaCity in Salford Quays, Co-op Group at its Angel Square headquarters and The Trafford Centre’s retail and logistics operation.

We complete your advice call and sign off on the agreement. Most clients are done within 24 hours.
In most cases, no. Your employer’s contribution covers our fees in full. If anything changes, we’ll be upfront about it before proceeding; no surprises, no hidden charges.
