The Challenge

When a UK-based company announces the closure of a site or large-scale redundancies, employers need a solution that ensures compliance, minimises disruption, and supports staff through a difficult transition.

Our Solution

Farleys’ employment law team have experience of providing comprehensive on-site legal advisory services on settlement agreement terms.

Designed to make the process as smooth and efficient as possible, here’s how we have provided on-site legal support on settlement agreement terms for one of our employer clients:

  • Tailored Planning: We prepared a bespoke quote for the company (to cover the employer’s contribution to legal fees as is standard practice for settlement agreement advice) and agreed legal terms in advance.
  • Clear Communication: Delivered an initial briefing via video (or in-person) to explain settlement agreement terms to all employees concerned.
  • On-Site Support: Over an agreed number of days, our team of solicitors attended the company premises to provide individual consultations to all employees.
  • Fair Outcomes: We negotiated and agreed any requested amendments with the employer, ensuring compliance and fairness throughout.

Why This Works

For Employers:

  • Efficiency: Employees receive advice on-site, reducing time away from work and avoiding delays.
  • Consistency: One legal team handles all queries, avoiding conflicting advice from multiple representatives.
  • Risk Management: Ensures all agreements meet legal requirements, reducing the risk of future claims.

For Employees:

  • Convenience: Immediate access to legal advice without arranging separate appointments.
  • Clarity: Clear explanation of settlement terms and rights, reducing stress during a difficult time.
  • Confidence: Opportunity to raise concerns and request amendments in a structured process.
