Is anybody here a lawyer specialising in employment law, have a settlement agreement which needs review.

What does review and advice typically cost?

When I had this, the company paid upto £250 towards the cost which covered it. If you do a search on here there are threads about this with some suggestions.

Standard settlement agreements what the terms aren't in dispute done cost a lot. Although I would think that £250 might be on the more side a bit.

It gets more expensive if you need the solicitor to advise on how to get more or to do the negotiation for you.

My ex employer offered a out £300-£400 towards it.

Cost about £700 in the end (total)

No particular contention - they read it once, spoke to me for say 20 mins, then a other email to confirm


This was from picking 3 "local" compa ies from Google, thogh despite regional offices they were a national.company I think.


Ultimately it is what it is: you're paying all the support behind the solicitor, not just their face time (zoom) that you get.
