Employment, Data Protection and Commercial Law Specialists
At Ricci and Partners, we understand the complexities of law and the impact it can have on both individuals and businesses. With our team of dedicated employment, data protection and commercial law specialists, we are here to provide comprehensive legal solutions tailored to your specific needs.
In employment law, settlement agreements are commonly used to resolve disputes between employers and employees, including issues like wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, or contractual disagreements.
For the settlement agreement to be enforceable it needs to meet specific criteria. One of those is that you get independent legal advice from your solicitor.
We can advise on you the terms, help you negotiate a better package, and where possible we fix our fees to your employer’s contribution so our service for you is free.
Settlement agreement negotiations can be a daunting and sometimes stressful prospect. However, if you have decided that the best option for you is to leave your employment, then it is important that you have the necessary support to ensure that you leave on terms that are most favourable to you.
We are experienced in negotiating exit packages and we will advise and support you throughout the process.
If you need advice on your employment rights, we can help. We offer a fixed fee service. For more information please get in touch.
In the event that your matter escalates to litigations we will support you by helping you draft the claim, deal with all case management directions, prepare your documents, your schedule of loss, attend preliminary hearings on your behalf and assist you with all employment tribunal related steps.
More often than not, employers will ask that you enter into certain restrictions that will apply to you even after your employment terminates. It is important that you understand what those are, and negotiate them before you commence your employment. If you need our assistance to advise you on the terms of your employment intellectual property, confidentiality and restrictive covenant clauses, we can help.
Although we are not usually able to participate in the internal procedures, we can assist you with drafting your grievance and supporting you through the process to ensure that you take all the necessary steps to protect your position should the matter escalate to litigation.

As more and more employees use Data Subject Access Requests as a means of applying pressure on employers, it is important that your organisation has the right support when dealing with such requests.
Finally, we assist employers on being compliant with their privacy notices to employees.
