Settlement agreement advice
Settlement Agreement Advice in Greenwich
Settlement agreements are extremely common in London, particularly in financial services, professional services, tech, and media. If your employer has offered you a settlement agreement, don't sign it without independent legal advice. This is a legal requirement, and in most cases your employer will cover our fees. We advise London employees by phone and video call, with same-day turnaround. We'll review every clause, including non-compete restrictions, confidentiality terms, tax treatment of your payment, and whether the compensation reflects what you could claim at an Employment Tribunal. If the offer is low, we'll tell you, and we can negotiate on your behalf.
Your advice comes from an SRA-regulated solicitor at RGF Lawyers, named to you when your call is confirmed.
Settlement agreements in Greenwich
The Royal Borough of Greenwich runs from the historic maritime quarter at Greenwich town, on the DLR, out to the O2 arena and Greenwich Peninsula, on the Jubilee line at North Greenwich.
We do not have an office in Greenwich, or anywhere: advice is entirely by phone and video call, so working in Greenwich does not affect how quickly we can review your settlement agreement.

What does Greenwich employment look like?
Greenwich's employment mix pairs a genuinely unusual concentration of maritime and cultural heritage institutions with one of Europe's biggest live entertainment venues on the Peninsula. Settlement agreements here span museum and heritage-sector staff, higher education, and event and hospitality roles at the O2, a wider spread of sectors than most single London boroughs.
- University of Greenwich has its main campus at the Old Royal Naval College, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
- Royal Museums Greenwich runs the National Maritime Museum, the Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark, all in Greenwich.
- The O2 the arena and entertainment complex on Greenwich Peninsula, is operated by AEG.
- Ravensbourne University London the digital media and design university, is based on Greenwich Peninsula.
Whatever your sector in Greenwich, our national guides cover the terms that come up most in a settlement agreement: bonus and deferred compensation, regulatory references, share options and RSUs, and restrictive covenants.
Which employment tribunal covers Greenwich?
If a claim from Greenwich did not settle and went to a hearing, it would typically be listed at the London South Employment Tribunal (Montague Court, West Croydon). That is background only: which tribunal region you fall in has no bearing on whether you can get advice, who can advise you, or what a fair settlement looks like. We do not vary our advice on your settlement agreement by tribunal region, wherever in Greenwich or London you are based.

Redundancy and settlement agreements in Greenwich
Most of the settlement agreements we see from Greenwich arise from redundancy or a negotiated exit, rather than a dispute. We advise employees only, never employers, and before you sign it is worth knowing your statutory floor and whether the offer is fair.

Do you need a solicitor near you?
Not for this. Settlement agreement advice does not require an in-person meeting: we work withGreenwich employees entirely by phone and video call, across England and Wales, and the certificate confirming you have had independent legal advice is signed electronically. That means the same solicitor, the same process and the same same-day turnaround, wherever inGreenwich or London you are based.

What Our Clients Say
"Sarah supported me through an incredibly difficult and emotional employment dispute with clarity, professionalism, and genuine care. What really stood out was how reassured I felt throughout. Even during moments of uncertainty, I knew I was in safe hands."
Rachel M.
Verified client review, January 2026
"She was incredibly thorough, taking the time to explain each clause clearly. Despite the level of detail and care, she worked very efficiently and achieved a quick turnaround, getting the documents reviewed and signed off without delay."
James P.
Verified client review, April 2025
"I used Sarah Wilkinson to review what should have been a straightforward settlement agreement with a less than 24 hour turnaround (which was achieved) but turned into 2 weeks of back and forth with my employer and their solicitor. Throughout the whole process, I truly felt like Sarah 'had my back'; she was not only professional but also a decent human being who wouldn't tolerate injustice or unfairness. I would not hesitate to recommend Sarah."

Free Settlement Agreement Review for Greenwich Employees
For Standard Agreements(Free to You)
Your employer pays our fee directly. This is written into most settlement agreements under the 'legal fees' clause. You pay nothing.
£0
to you
For Negotiated Agreements
If we think you can do better, we'll negotiate on your behalf, aiming to increase your payout and remove potentially harmful clauses like non-competes. We'll discuss fees upfront before any work begins. We will always seek a contribution to costs from your employer.
Discussed upfront
no surprises
The Small Print:
Our review is free to you where your employer's contribution covers our fee. Nearly every settlement agreement includes one, because the law requires you to take independent legal advice before signing. If yours doesn't, we'll tell you upfront in our initial review (which is free).
No upfront costs. We'll confirm everything before starting, or call 0330 043 3008 to talk it through.
Common Questions
Do I need a London-based solicitor for my settlement agreement?
No. Employment law is the same across England and Wales regardless of where your solicitor is based. We advise London employees by phone and video, same-day review, no office visit needed, and your employer pays our fees.
How can this be free? What's the catch?
There's no catch. By law, your employer must contribute towards your legal fees when offering a settlement agreement. We receive our fee directly from your employer under the 'legal fees' clause. You pay nothing for a standard review.
Can I trust advice that's this fast?
Yes. We're specialists. We focus exclusively on settlement agreements. This means we can provide thorough, accurate advice efficiently. Quality is never compromised.
What if I want to negotiate a better offer?
We'll tell you honestly if we think negotiation is worth it. Every case is different. Sometimes the terms offered are fair and we'll confirm that. In other cases, we'll recommend negotiating for improved terms.
Do I have to come to your office?
No. We advise Greenwich clients entirely by phone and video call. No office visit required. Everything is handled remotely, including electronic signatures.
What if my employer doesn't pay your fee?
Rare, but it happens. If your agreement doesn't include a legal fees clause, we'll quote you upfront before starting work. No surprises.
Still have questions? Start the process and we'll call you, or ring 0330 043 3008. Free, no obligation.
