So it is a pub company. They managed out my partner and he resigned but I am still employed. They are transitioning the site from a managed site to a turnover tenancy agreement. I want to settle by taking on the tenancy, they are asking for £*,* ingoing for it which is less than I’d consider settling for and less than a potential tribunal win anyway. Can I pitch it? I realise it’s unusual. And it would require solicitor input but having considered the financials and the fact that I feel forced into quitting my job, I feel like it’s the best win win for everyone involved
It's possible to propose a settlement that involves taking on the tenancy, especially if it benefits both parties. Here are a few considerations:
- Proposal: Clearly outline how the tenancy benefits both you and the company.
- Legal Advice: Seek guidance from a solicitor to ensure your proposal is legally sound.
- Negotiation: Be prepared for negotiations and ensure your settlement reflects the potential tribunal outcome.
