Your employer will typically include a legal fee contribution within the settlement agreement, usually between £350 and £750 plus VAT. We cap our fees at that amount. In most cases, you pay nothing, and your employer funds the specialist advice you’re entitled to.
We’ll review the agreement, advise you clearly on your options and, where appropriate, negotiate on your behalf. Usually, at no cost to you.

Nottingham’s workforce is anchored by some of the UK’s best-known employers. Boots has operated from its Beeston campus since the 19th century and remains one of the city’s largest private sector employers. HMRC has a significant regional presence. And a growing life sciences and pharmaceutical sector, centred on Nottingham’s BioCity in Pennyfoot Street, is adding a new dimension to the employment landscape. Across all of these sectors, settlement agreements are a regular occurrence. This may be through large-scale redundancy programmes, individual exits or senior leadership transitions.
If you’ve been offered one, independent advice is a legal requirement. But it’s also your opportunity to make sure the deal is right:
Most high street firms handle employment law as a fraction of their overall caseload. We don’t. Settlement agreements are the core of what we do, and that narrow focus translates directly into better outcomes for our clients:
And we do it all within your employer’s fee contribution in most cases.
We work with clients across Nottingham and the surrounding region, including:
Whether you’re at a global employer or a local business, we give your case the same attention and urgency.
Email your settlement agreement or request a call back. We'll respond the same day.
We go through the agreement line by line, explain your options and tell you honestly whether the terms are fair — and what we'd push back on.
We carry out your advice call and provide sign-off. Most clients are done within 24 hours of getting in touch.
For most clients: nothing. Your employer’s fee contribution covers our work in full. In the uncommon cases where there’s a gap, we’ll tell you clearly and in advance before we do anything.
