Settlement (compromise) avgreements FAQs
What is a reasonable settlement agreement?
A reasonable settlement agreement cannot be quantified as it is unique to each individual’s circumstances. As long as it is fair for both parties involved, it can be deemed reasonable.
Are settlement agreements taxable?
The first £30,000 of a compensatory settlement payment is tax-free. This also applies to redundancy payments. Some payments, however, are taxable. Examples include contractual payments such as holiday pay.
Do I need a solicitor for a settlement agreement?
Yes, all settlement agreements must be reviewed and signed by a qualified legal representative before they can be deemed lawful.
How much does it cost to create a settlement agreement with a solicitor?
The overall cost will depend on the complexity of your settlement and what legal work is required to legalise the agreement. Please call us for more information.

Miya Smith did an excellent job on the…
Miya Smith did an excellent job on the conveyancing for the sale of our farm. She was great at communicating and prompt at replying to our queries, speaking on the phone whenever that made the process simpler or faster. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for a professional and approachable solicitor.
Conveyancing (Sale and Purchase)
We instructed Eric Robinson (Sarah Hogarty) for the sale of our house and purchase of a new property. Sarah and the legal team were fantastic throughout the whole process. Professional conveyancing with clear communication.
An exceptional experience
Emma Gillespie was brilliant when dealing with both the sale of my property and the purchase of our new house. She was meticulous, efficient and kept me informed of new developments every step of the way. I would not hesitate to recommend her and Eric Robinson Solicitors to anyone.
Bitterne Branch
I dealt with Michelle in the Conveyancing Dept. To say she is she is fantastic would be a vast understatement! I have worked with numerous solicitors over the years and never with one who was so proactive as opposed to being reactive. It was quite a lengthy chain but we were kept updated throughout and nothing seemed too much trouble. Could not recommend her services enough!
We are so impressed
We are in the process of buying our first home, my whole family have used eric Robinson in the past and I’m glad we have used them! Our solicitor Hannah has bent over backwards for me my husband and 2 girls, I can’t wait to give them their own rooms! This was my dream for them and I have actually achieved it! Im so thankful to Hannah for helping make it possible. Thank you 😊 x
Hazzra was absolutely outstanding – truly an asset to Eric Robinson!
I was amazed at how smoothly and quickly the purchasing process was handled. After a previous bad experience with another firm, where I had to pull out of a purchase due to poor service, I was honestly nervous to start again. But Hazzra completely restored my faith in the conveyancing process. From start to finish, she provided clear and continuous updates, ensuring I understood every step of the transaction. Her professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care made what could have been a stressful process feel effortless. Without a doubt, I will be requesting Hazzra for all future property purchases as well as recommending to friends and family. Thank you once again for your exceptional work – you’ve truly made this experience a pleasure!
