Your employer’s settlement offer isn’t your only option.

You can refuse a settlement agreement, ask questions or negotiate the terms, depending on your circumstances.

Our latest guide explains what happens if you refuse an offer, what your employer may do next, and what to consider before responding.

Bereavement leave: what employers should know

From April 2027, eligible employees in Great Britain are expected to have a new day-one right to bereavement leave.

Under the Government’s announced proposals, the leave would be unpaid and could be taken in single days within a 56-week period. It is expected to cover specified close family bereavements and pregnancy loss before 24 weeks.

The new right is not in force yet. Secondary legislation is still required to set out the detailed rules.

Employers can start preparing by reviewing compassionate leave policies and planning how managers will handle requests sensitively.

The Legal Practice Solicitors can advise on employment policies and preparing for the changes.

From April 2027, most unused pension funds will come within the scope of Inheritance Tax.

For blended families, second marriages and unmarried couples, this could have important implications for how pension wealth is passed on.

Our latest guide explains the changes, who may be affected, and what families should consider when reviewing their wills, pensions and wider estate plans.

Private client work often begins when a family is already dealing with loss. Where there is no clear and up-to-date Will, uncertainty about a person’s wishes can make an emotional time even more difficult.

A properly drafted Will can provide valuable clarity. It allows you to record who should administer your estate, who should benefit and how you would like particular family responsibilities or possessions to be handled.

It is also important to review your Will when your personal or financial circumstances change—for example, following a marriage, separation, birth, bereavement or property purchase.

Planning ahead is not about expecting the worst. It is about making your wishes clear and helping your family understand what you wanted.

Received a settlement agreement and not sure what happens next?

Getting independent advice doesn’t need to mean taking significant time away from work.

At The Legal Practice, we can review your agreement and advise you on what the terms mean for you, with appointments available by video or in person.

✓ Independent legal advice
✓ Video or in person appointments
✓ SRA regulated solicitors
✓ Employers will often contribute towards the cost of legal advice

Before signing, it’s important to understand the terms of your agreement and how they affect your rights. Independent advice is also a legal requirement for a settlement agreement to be valid.

Send us your agreement to discuss the next steps.

Skipping a property survey can hide issues that lead to costly repairs.

Not understanding the exchange of contracts is a risk, as once exchanged, the agreement is legally binding and withdrawing can mean losing your deposit.

Understanding each stage of the conveyancing process helps protect your investment.

What happens if you don’t have a will in the UK? ⚖️

It is not your family who decides. It is the law.

And the outcome may not reflect what you would have wanted, especially when it comes to partners, children, and how your estate is divided.

Making a will is not just about assets. It is about protecting the people who matter most.
