Settlement Agreements
A settlement agreement is a document that agrees that you will sign away your rights to bring any form of claims against your employer in the future. It is prepared exclusively for your employers benefit despite anything that there may be in the agreement for you in terms of payment.
Because it is such a serious measure the law requires that you take legal advice on the agreement from and independent legal advisor. TM Law are independent legal advisors and can advise you on the effect and content of the agreement you are being asked to sign.
It is usual for your employer to pay the advisor for the advice and if this is not the case we will agree a fixed fee for the advice in advance with you.
The settlement agreements exclude all future claims you may have and therefore it is very important that you are advised properly by truly independent legal advisors
TM Law are very experienced in advising on settlement agreements and in the last year alone Terry Maylin of TM Law has advised on hundreds of settlement agreements where people have been given anything from £1,000 to £500,000 in payoffs by their employers.

I needed a document certified and no solicitors in Wickford that I tried for this simple activity would assist. Terry dealt with my request with the urgency it required. They are specialists but if I need them, they are first on my list and ill tell others as well. They could see beyond the minor inconvenience that I appeared to be to other solicitors who displayed a shockingly poor service. Thanks Terry!

When all else fails
When all else fails and you have to turn to solicitors you wont go wrong using TM LAW. Not the first time I’ve had to use them and am never disappointed. I have used them from drawing up lease agreements to pursuing monies through the courts system and have never had a bad experience with them by my side.

Terry Maylin at TM Law has assisted me on a number of personal and business related matters over the years and I have always been very pleased with the results he has achieved.
In particular, Terry has recently recovered a large sum of money from a client who chose not to pay my fee invoice for a structural design project. As always, Terry was very patient as he clearly explained every step of the process to me. Thanks to his expertise, the matter was swiftly resolved and I really can’t recommend him highly enough. I would not hesitate to recommend Terry at TM Law to anyone who needs prompt and reliable legal advice and action.
