Legal settlements

Legal settlements are agreements reached between parties in a dispute, typically before a case goes to trial. They allow the parties to resolve their differences without a lengthy legal battle. In a settlement, one party may agree to pay money or take specific actions in exchange for the other party dropping the case. Settlements can save time, reduce legal costs, and provide more certainty for both sides, as they avoid the unpredictability of a court decision. Once a settlement is finalized, it usually becomes a binding contract, resolving the issue without further legal proceedings.
