How it goes
Read the papers
We read your contract, letters and emails before we meet, so the meeting is about you, not the paperwork.
Your options
What a claim could achieve, what it would cost, and what settling would look like.
Negotiate
We write to the other side and negotiate, usually without going near a tribunal.
Sign off
We check every word of the final agreement before you sign.
Who does it

Partner, employment and business
Dismissals, settlement agreements, discrimination and contracts. Most matters settle; we make sure the settlement is a good one.
Tell us briefly what happened, and we’ll tell you within one working day whether we can help and what a first consultation would cover.
Questions
Will I have to go to a tribunal?
Most matters settle before a claim is issued. If yours doesn't, we tell you the costs of each stage first.
Who pays for a settlement agreement review?
Usually your employer contributes towards it; we tell you how much in the first call.
