Compromise Agreements

A Compromise Agreement is a formal document under which you, as an employee, agree to forego legal employment rights and claims against an employer or former employer.

In return, you will be granted certain payments, benefits and privileges.

If you're considering agreeing to a Compromise Agreement, you are legally obliged to take independent legal advice, and Gorvins' Employment Team can provide all the support you need - negotiating terms and advising whether and when you should sign.

Since your employer will benefit from the waiver of your claims, they'll usually pick up the tab for the advice you need and, as far as possible, we'll ensure that such a contribution from your employer will cover our charges - so that you don't have to pay us anything.
