Solidaire Solicitors offers free advice to employees facing voluntary redundancy and settlement agreements

With many businesses restructuring to adapt to challenging economic conditions, employees are increasingly being presented with voluntary redundancy packages and settlement agreements. While these offers may seem appealing, they come with significant legal and financial implications that can be difficult to understand without professional guidance.

Solidaire Solicitors is stepping up to support the community by offering complimentary consultations to anyone who has been offered voluntary redundancy or asked to sign a settlement agreement. The firm’s team of experienced employment solicitors will help individuals understand their rights, assess the fairness of their redundancy package or settlement terms, and ensure they are making informed decisions about their future.

“Voluntary redundancy and settlement agreements can be daunting, and many people are unaware of their entitlements or the long-term impact of accepting such offers,” said Bodrul Amin, Principal Solicitor at Solidaire Solicitors. “Our goal is to empower individuals with the knowledge they need to make the best decision for their circumstances. Whether it’s clarifying contractual terms, negotiating a better package, or exploring alternative options, we’re here to help.”

Settlement agreements, in particular, are legally binding contracts that often require employees to waive their right to pursue certain claims against their employer. Solidaire Solicitors will ensure individuals fully understand the implications of signing such agreements and help negotiate improved terms where possible.

Solidaire Solicitors’ initiative comes at a critical time, as many employees face difficult decisions about their careers and financial stability. The firm encourages anyone who has been offered voluntary redundancy or a settlement agreement to take advantage of this free service, regardless of their industry or role.
