## Checking a settlement agreement (video)

If you have received a **settlement agreement** (or **termination agreement**) from your employer, it is advisable to have its contents checked. An initial dismissal proposal is often drawn up one-sidedly and after negotiation by an employment lawyer, a lot more appears to be possible!

In the video below, lawyer Jos de Ridder explains what this procedure looks like and how we are able to assist. The video is in Dutch, but you can switch on English subtitles if needed.
