Obtain Practical Employment Law Advice for Businesses

We understand workplace disputes are time-consuming, sensitive and disruptive.

For all these reasons, we work closely with you to provide practical solutions, protect the interests of the business, and conclude matters professionally.

Correspondingly, settlement agreements provide certainty for both parties. This is why they’re often used to avoid lengthy internal wrangling or even contentious tribunal proceedings.

We regularly advise on issues including, but not limited to:

  • Protected conversations
  • Severance packages
  • Confidentiality clauses
  • Agreed references
  • Post-termination restrictions

Drafting and Settlement Agreement Negotiation

A well-drafted settlement agreement must be tailored to the specific circumstances of the employee’s exit and the needs of the business. Otherwise, the use of generic wording without legal advice can – and does - create unnecessary risk. Our legal team assist in all areas of settlement agreements, including:

  • Drafting bespoke settlement agreements
  • Settlement agreement negotiation
  • Advising on legally compliant exit strategies
  • Compensation agreement and redundancy
  • Tax considerations
  • Restrictive covenants

It’s our aim to provide you with practical, jargon-free legal advice, equipping you to make informed commercial decisions with confidence and at pace.

Taurus HR Solutions Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to undertake regulated claims management activities in respect of employment-related claims.

Employees: You do not need to use a claims management firm (“CMC”) to bring a claim, and you can usually bring a claim for free. You can bring a claim against your employer without a legal representative, or you may wish to seek advice from ACAS, a local law centre, your trade union or the Citizens Advice Bureau. 

By using the services of a claims management firm, it does not mean your claim will be resolved more quickly, has a better prospect of success or will result in a better outcome than if you were to issue a claim yourself.
