Employment Contracts & Agreements

Employment contracts and agreements set out key terms of your employment relationship, including duties, salary, notice, benefits and what happens if things go wrong. Whether you’re starting a new role, being asked to sign a fresh agreement, or reviewing existing terms, it’s essential to ensure they reflect your rights and obligations under UK employment law. At Pre-Law, our fixed-fee service helps you draft, review, and negotiate employment contracts or agreements so you can proceed with confidence.

What We Do

We support individuals, HR teams, and small businesses with:

  • Employment Contract Drafting - tailored contracts that reflect the reality of the role
  • Contract Reviews - checking if your terms are fair, enforceable, and work in your favour
  • Negotiation Support - helping you secure better terms or push back against clauses that don’t suit you
  • Settlement Agreements - advising on agreed exits and helping you understand your rights before signing
  • Changing Terms & Conditions - ensuring changes are lawful and properly documented

Common Contracts & Agreements We Help With

We advise on a wide range of employment-related agreements, including:

  • Employment Contracts - covering duties, hours, pay, holiday, notice periods, and policies
  • Zero-Hours & Casual Agreements - ensuring workers’ rights and obligations are clearly set out
  • Director Service Agreements - including fiduciary duties, restrictions, and termination clauses
  • Settlement Agreements - drafting, reviewing, and negotiating agreed exits and severance terms
  • Freelancer & Consultancy Agreements - clarifying employment status and tax implications
