Employment Law
If you and your employer decide to part company on agreed terms, a severance agreement needs to be drawn up. Under the Employment Rights Act, these agreements are invalid unless the employee has taken legal advice and the agreement is counter-signed by a solicitor.
Employment law is a fast changing area with ever increasing procedures for employers to comply with and increased penalties imposed by employment tribunals for those who fail to keep up to date.
You will need to have your systems and procedures tightened up and it would be sound advice to speak to someone who knows about them. Contact: .
