Compromise Agreements

Compromise Agreements are legally binding agreements between an employer and an employee, which make a ‘full and final settlement’, safeguarding the employer from any legal action in the future by a dismissed employee. A compromise agreement drawn up by a qualified solicitor usually carries assurances by the employee, including that legal action toward further claims against their employer will not be pursued in the future. They may offer some payment to the employee, and will include details of the compensation offered. As the terms of a compromise agreement are legally binding, they need to be evaluated in detail before signing by either party. Therefore, specialist compromise agreement solicitors should be consulted on whether the terms of the agreement are fair, and that is where Legal Compare can assist you.
