Employment Contract Reviews
Employment Contract Review Solicitors in Cheltenham and Gloucestershire
Whether you’re starting a new job, negotiating terms, or dealing with changes to your employment, it’s important to understand exactly what you’re agreeing to. At Pembridge Solicitors, we provide clear, practical advice on employment contracts for employees and senior executives across Cheltenham and Gloucestershire.
We review employment contracts, service agreements, and consultancy agreements — helping you identify any risks, clarify your rights, and negotiate fairer terms where needed.
Why Review Your Employment Contract?
Employment contracts can be complex and contain legal language that’s easy to miss. A review ensures you fully understand:
- Your job role and responsibilities
- Working hours, pay, and benefits
- Restrictive covenants (e.g. non-compete clauses)
- Notice periods and termination terms
- Bonus schemes and commission structures
- Intellectual property and confidentiality clauses
If you’re unsure about any part of your contract, we’ll explain it in plain English and help you make an informed decision before signing.
Common Situations We Can Help With
- Starting a new job or promotion
- Being offered a senior-level or director role
- Changing terms during employment
- Moving to a new role with restrictive covenants
- Switching from employee to contractor
Negotiating your exit and final terms
What You’ll Receive
- A full legal review of your contract
- A written summary of key issues or red flags
- Guidance on your rights and obligations
- Advice on negotiating terms (if needed)
Optional support during employer discussions
