                For a compromise agreement to be   				binding an employee must obtain advice from someone who is a "Relevant Independent Adviser" or "Relevant Adviser" for purposes of   				the employment legislation which deals with compromise agreements. Although   				many employees look for a solicitor to provide this service   				barristers too are "Relevant Independent Advisers" for purposes   				of the employment legislation concerned with compromise   				agreements. 
                   As a Direct Public Access Barrister   				Erich Suter is a "qualified Lawyer" and "Relevant Independent   				Adviser" authorised by statute to advise on, and   				to provide an adviser's certificate in respect of, compromise   				agreements for employees. He also has vast experience in drawing up and   				negotiating compromise agreements for employers.

                Because of the nature of compromise   				agreements we can advise on a compromise agreement without you even having to meet with us - everything can be done by phone and by e-mail. Any disputes can be dealt with directly with your employer in the same way. This means that we can - and do - deal with compromise agreements from all over the Uk.  
Indeed we have dealt with compromise agreements from all parts of the UK in this way - from the most Northern parts of Scotland down to the furthest reaches of Cornwall. From Bristol, Wales, Liverpool and the Lake District in the West to Tyneside, Humberside,  Norfolk and   Kent in the east.

                A compromise agreement in an   				employment case is a written agreement settling employment claims. It can be an agreement under which an employee's employment is terminated; or an agreement which settles specific employment claims.  
                   Compromise agreements are governed by   				Statute and require an employee to obtain advice from a   				"relevant independent adviser". These agreements apply to   				settlements of all types of statutory employment rights claims such as unfair dismissal,  sex discrimination, race discrimination, disability discrimination, non-payment of wages,   				minimum wage claims, holidays and holiday pay claims and other   				statutory employment rights   				from time off for reasons such as maternity and paternity leave   				to issues about Sunday working.  
 Erich Suter has been involved in   				drafting and negotiating compromise agreements (and general employment   				settlements) on behalf of both   				employers and employees in all sectors from investment banking,   				insurance  and financial services companies, professional   				firms, public and and government bodies and major plc's to   				companies with only a few employees. He has represented   				individual employees from senior directors, professionals and   				managers at all levels to shop and manual employees. From MDs of   				public companies to cleaners. 
 Each organisation and each   				employee has their own individual interests and needs in   				arriving at a compromise and it is important that each achieves   				a result in the final settlement of their employment issues which is appropriate for them in their particular   				circumstances. This can be a last chance for both sides to reach   				an amicable resolution or an agreed termination of employment on   				agreed terms.

 If you need to draft compromise agreements or have a compromise agreement   		on which you need advice from London or the City (City of London) or   		elsewhere we can help.
  
 If you are looking for a solicitor or an employment solicitor or an   		employment law solicitor contact Park Chambers where you can instruct an   		employment barrister under the direct public access provisions. This is   		normally cheaper than using a solicitor and we are able to draft   		compromise agreements or to advise you on your compromise agreement. We   		can also provide a valid "adviser's certificate" or "independent   		adviser's certificate" in respect of a compromise agreement.
