Compromise Agreements

Expert advice for clear, fair and legally compliant exits.

A job for life is rare.  Where an employment relationship has run its course, for whatever reason, we provide clear, pragmatic, and strategic advice to assist both employers and employees to terminate their employment relationship sensibly, fairly, and in a legally compliant manner.

Our Expertise

Compromise agreements are often used to record the terms on which an employment relationship is ended, whether by way of redundancy, mutual consent, or some other reason for termination.  We offer clear, strategic advice on all aspects of compromise agreements to ensure our clients understand their rights, obligations, options, and risks.

At BCR, our team of experts act for both employers and employees. We always seek to engage constructively with a view to achieving as amicable a termination as possible.  Where this is not possible, our advocates have the expertise and experience to pursue matters before the Tribunal and the Royal Court.

Our Approach

For employers, we draft bespoke compromise agreements that are legally robust and tailored to the situation at hand. We help minimise the risk of future claims while achieving a cost-effective resolution. We handle matters promptly, pro-actively, and efficiently.

Compromise agreements must meet strict legal requirements to be enforceable, including the need for employees to take independent legal advice.  Our employment law team ensures that our employee clients understand their rights and obligations, and handle cases efficiently, professionally, and with a clear focus on achieving the best outcome.

Our Values in Action

Excellence: Provide expert, tailored advice that meets the highest standards.

Delivery: We deliver clear, practical, legal solutions with responsiveness, precision, and no surprises.

Respect: We listen, understand, and tailor our advice to each client’s unique needs.

Elegance: We navigate complexity by providing advice with clarity, professionalism, and refined legal execution.

Why BCR Law

We provide expert advice to secure clear, fair, and legally complaint exit agreements for both employers and employees.  We guide our clients through every step of the process to protect their rights and achieve the best possible outcome.
