Employment Settlement Agreements

An employment settlement agreement is a formal document that resolves disputes between an employee and employer, often related to termination or workplace issues. It outlines the terms of the separation, including any severance pay, benefits, and confidentiality clauses. The agreement ensures both parties agree on the conditions and releases the employer from future claims. Typically, signing this document provides legal certainty and closure, protecting both sides from future disagreements. It is advisable to review such agreements carefully, often with legal guidance, to understand your rights and obligations before signing.
