Frequently asked questions
What types of clients do you support in Sevenoaks?
We regularly advise professionals, senior executives, business owners and employers in Sevenoaks and across West Kent. Many of our individual clients work in financial services, law, healthcare or consultancy, and come to us for support on pay and bonus disputes, contracts, and complex or high-value exits. For employers, we assist with performance issues, redundancy planning, grievances and strategic risk management.
Do you help with negotiated exits and settlement agreements?
Yes. We represent both employers and individuals in negotiated exits, particularly where reputational concerns, confidentiality and future opportunities are at stake. We’ll help you understand your legal position, assess the fairness of the terms and secure a deal that aligns with your priorities. For employees and executives, we offer independent legal advice on settlement agreements. For more detail, visit our settlement agreement solicitors page.
Do you advise on bonus disputes and pay disagreements?
We regularly support clients with disputes around bonuses, commission, LTIPs and other pay structures. These issues often arise during exits or performance reviews and can involve complex contractual rights or discretion clauses. Whether you’re an executive facing a withheld bonus or an employer managing claims, we’ll provide clear advice and protect your position. Visit our pay and bonus disputes page for more on how we help.
What support do you offer employers facing a grievance issue?
We advise employers in Sevenoaks on managing formal procedures fairly, lawfully and with minimal disruption. That includes reviewing policies, drafting correspondence, advising on investigations and supporting hearings. Our lawyers also provide dedicated grievance and investigation training for employers looking to improve confidence and compliance within their team.
Do you advise on post-termination restrictions and confidentiality clauses?
Yes. These issues are particularly relevant in professional roles where business reputation, clients and confidential information are key. We advise individuals on the enforceability of restrictive covenants, such as non-compete or non-solicitation clauses – and help employers draft and enforce protections.
How much will it cost to instruct your employment lawyers?
We offer a range of pricing structures, depending on the nature of the issue and the service required. For one-off advice, we may offer fixed fees. For ongoing matters, we usually work on an hourly basis. We’re always transparent and will explain costs upfront. You can visit our pricing page for more detail, or speak to us directly for a tailored estimate.
