Large-scale Settlement Agreements
Our SAU solicitors have both the skills and the in-house processes to be able to act as independent legal advisors to thousands of workers facing redundancy at the same workplace. The SAU has acted for workers from a range of industries and employers, including Royal Mail, Airbus, EDF, GKN Aerospace and Ford, as well as NHS Trusts and universities.
Our established procedures for processing large-scale settlement agreements mean that we are able to offer expedited specialist legal advice at a competitive cost, on a local or national basis.
Our large-scale settlement agreement service includes:
- One-to-one advice sessions with each employee, in-person or virtually, or alternatively we can conduct small group sessions
- Negotiations with the employer on an individual employee basis
- A final certified agreement for each individual employee.
Our case management system:
- Provides a centralised database of employees
- Acts as a hub for all communication and documentation between the employee and the advising solicitor
- Allows for e-signatures
- Ensures all employees are put in contact with their solicitor from the very start of the process
- Provides daily reports of completed and outstanding agreements
- Incorporates a built-in reminder process that can be tailored to ensure all agreements are completed within agreed timeframes.
