Have you been offered a Settlement Agreement by your employer?

Before signing, it is important to understand exactly what you are agreeing to and how the terms could affect your rights. You will also need to receive independent legal advice for the agreement to be legally binding.

Our Employment Law team can review your settlement agreement, explain the terms in clear language, advise you on whether the offer is appropriate and, where necessary, help negotiate on your behalf.

If you have received a Settlement Agreement and need independent legal advice, speak to Tom Evans and the DTM Legal Employment Law team.

AI is already changing the way workplace issues are raised, managed and challenged. But what does that mean for employers and HR teams?

Join DTM Legal’s Tom Evans and Louise Harcombe for Ctrl+Alt+Grievance: AI, HR and Workplace Claims - a practical session exploring the growing impact of AI in the workplace.

We’ll look at how employees are increasingly using AI when preparing grievances, appeals and Employment Tribunal claims, the challenges this can create for employers, and the practical steps HR professionals and business leaders should be considering.

If you work in HR, people management or run a business, this session will provide practical insight into an issue that is only going to become more important.

Cohabiting couples currently have far fewer legal protections than married couples or civil partners, but proposed reforms could significantly change the position.

The Government is considering changes that could introduce greater financial protections following the breakdown of a cohabiting relationship, helping to address some of the difficulties couples can face under the current law.

In our latest article, Liz Dubkova looks at:

- The current legal position for cohabiting couples
- What protections may be introduced
- How the proposed reforms could affect separating couples
- Why it remains important to understand your rights and consider protecting your position now

Read the full article to find out what the proposed changes could mean for you:
