Why You Need a Specialist Settlement Agreement Lawyer
A settlement agreement is a legally binding contract between you and your employer, usually used to end your employment on agreed terms. It typically involves a compensation payment in exchange for you agreeing not to pursue any legal claims against your employer. However, for it to be legally valid, you must obtain independent legal advice.
That’s where we come in. At Mason Bullock Solicitors, we don’t dabble in employment law—it’s our focus. Every day, we help employees across the UK understand their settlement agreements and secure better outcomes. We’ll explain everything in plain English, help you understand your options, and guide you every step of the way.

What’s Included in Our Settlement Agreement Advice?
Here’s what you get when you work with our experienced settlement agreement solicitors:
✅ Rapid Legal Advice
We respond quickly—usually the same day. We know time is often short when it comes to signing a settlement agreement.
✅ Full Clause-by-Clause Review
Your solicitor will go through the entire agreement with you, explaining what each clause means, what your obligations are, and what you’re giving up in return.
✅ Protected Conversation Guidance
If your employer has asked for a “protected conversation”, we’ll explain what this means and how to handle it. These conversations are off the record, and they’re often the first step toward offering a settlement agreement. Having a settlement agreement lawyer on board will help you protect your interests from the start.
✅ Strategy for a Better Deal
Think the offer’s too low? We’ll give you an honest opinion and practical advice on how to ask for more—whether that’s a higher payment, extended notice, or a job reference.
✅ Legal Adviser’s Certificate for Your Employer
To make the agreement legally binding, your employer needs confirmation from an independent lawyer that you’ve received advice. We’ll provide that as part of the service.
We Only Act for Employees – Never Employers
We act solely for employees, which means we always act in your best interests, not your employer’s. Whether you’re accepting an agreement or looking to negotiate a better outcome, we’re on your side.
How the Process Works
- Step 1 – Free Legal Advice: Contact us to discuss your situation. We’ll advise you on next steps, and let you know how we can help.
- Step 2 – Agreement Review: Email us the draft settlement agreement. We’ll go through it in detail and arrange a phone consultation to discuss it with you.
- Step 3 – Advice and Strategy: We’ll explain the agreement, suggest any improvements, and give you options for negotiation if appropriate.
- Step 4 – Certification: Once everything is agreed, we’ll sign the certificate and send it to your employer to finalise the agreement.
It’s straightforward, fast, and you’re in safe hands throughout.
