Advisors Certificate - going rate?

[Ranger 6]

PH legal bods,

With regard to redundancy settlements, what's the going rate for a signature on an advisors certificate please?

If anyone has any recommendations too?

TIA

Thanks - have been offered substantially less than that, hence the enquiry.

Seems to be a thorny issue anyway as next to the legal contribution is a statement that the employer will not accept invoices and the amount is non-negotiable.

I will mention you when I call him.

Cheers

Do you have any contacts? That sort of price is much closer to what's been offered.

These certs are new to me. I presume that it's a sort of compromise agreement and only relevant when redundancy is mutually agreed and any package is in excess of statutory provisions. Is that about right?

From what I can see on the documentation, yes, it's a part of the Settlement Agreement where what has been offered is in excess of the statutory requirements and it's the employer making sure that there is independent advice given about signing the settlement and the implications. Basically once the settlement is complete there's no avenue for further action or claim against the employer.
