Drafting Service and Severance Agreements

Service and severance agreements for senior personnel are often bespoke and may give rise to lengthy litigation.

This eminently practical book offers detailed guidance on drafting and negotiating service agreements.

It highlights areas for particular consideration and discusses the arguments for and against various contractual provisions.

The book is organised to follow the chronological order in which the contract and associated documents should be drafted.

It includes: detailed advice on each aspect of drafting; a CD-ROM with precedents, model clauses, draft letters and contracts for flexibility and customisation; and suggested model wording to suit different situations and advice on the use of plain language.
