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.

An excellent service.
My brother and me instructed Chantelle for the conveyancing of the property that had been the family home for 59 years. It was not a good time for us following the death of our father and our mother being moved to a nursing home. We chose Eric Robinson because we were very content with they way they were handling the probate for our father’s will. Throughout the process, Chantelle has been very courteous and helpful. She has helped to move things along nice and quickly despite what appeared to be the best efforts of the estate agent and buyers’ solicitor to hold things up. I cannot think of any negative points at all and woul highly recommend Chantelle to anyone looking for a conveyancing solicitor.
Employment Issue
I had a small contractual issue to settle with my ex-employer, which Chelsea Marsh assisted me with. She was absolutely excellent; communication was flawless and she helped me to achieve my objectives. Would highly recommend.
Miya was always calm
Miya was always calm, efficient and a good listener during a surprisingly difficult and protracted conveyancing process.
Hazzra Huxford is exceptional!
Hazzra Huxford at Eric Robinson is truly exceptional at her job, and I’d recommend dealing with her to anyone. She recently dealt with a property purchase for me. Hazzra was extremely professional and efficient throughout the whole process. All of the information she provided me with was very well communicated and she carried out all of the necessary research and enquiries in great detail and depth. I was absolutely confident nothing at all would be missed or quickly skimmed through! I felt no need to chase Hazzra up on anything at any point, as it became clear to me (very early on!) that she would reach out to let me know as soon as there were updates on/or I needed to action anything. I’m a first time buyer but Hazzra made the solicitor side of things a breeze and pretty much stress free on my side. I’m very grateful. Thank you so much, Hazzra!
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.
