Robert M.
Robert is a sixth-generation Tennessean and part of a long line of Tennessee attorneys: There has been a Marks attorney in Tennessee since 1856. In 1929, Robert’s great-grandfather established an event venue, Shadowbrook, which Robert has worked at his entire life, including managing for 10 years. He knows what business owners are dealing with—especially venue owners—because he has dealt with it. While Robert loves the hospitality industry, he pursued his passion. In 2016, Robert decided to attend law school and continue managing the business. He thrived. He was a founding member of the Nashville School of Law's Legal Aid Society, received the Tennessee Supreme Court’s Law Student for Justice award, and interned with the Tennessee Supreme Court's Access to Justice Commission. Before co-founding Mercury Legal Group, Robert focused on estate planning in solo practice. In this role, he helped clients protect what they had spent a lifetime building. Now he helps his clients build their businesses by providing tailored legal services.

Compromise And Settlement Agreement Templates
As a lawyer with a background in contract drafting and litigation, I created this template settlement agreement to help you formalize a resolution to a legal dispute. I also have legal services packages set up if you need additional help with the template (i.e., reviewing it after you filled it out, needing help filling it out, etc.).
Overview of the Template Settlement Agreement
For context, a settlement agreement is typically between two parties whereby one party (the plaintiff) gives up the right to hold the other party (the defendant) legally responsible for current or future injuries, losses, and damages. Settlement agreements are quite common in civil legal matters such as automobile accidents, landlord-tenant disputes, breach of contract claims, etc.
The party waiving their rights do so in exchange for monetary and/or non-monetary compensation.
A settlement agreement may also be referred to as the following:
- Liability release form
- Liability waiver form
- Release of liability waiver
- Release agreement
- Waiver and release of liability
What is Included in the Template Settlement Agreement?
My template settlement agreement contains key provisions to help formalize the terms and expectations associated with the parameters of the settlement. The settlement agreement template expressly states the desires of both parties to settle controversies that might have been raised in a civil action and that the settlement agreement is an effort to avoid such further costs and inconvenience. Importantly, my settlement agreement template states the amount of consideration (i.e., the settlement amount) that will be provided to one party in exchange for them waiving their rights to future injuries, losses, and damages.
My settlement agreement template contains important language highlighting the voluntary nature of the settlement agreement and formally acknowledges that the parties understand the terms and are in agreement with them.
In addition to these sections, my template settlement agreement contains provisions addressing protections afforded to confidential information that may have been shared between the parties during settlement negotiations. There are also provisions discussing tax consequences associated with the settlement, along with representations and warranties between the parties, which helps establish the scope of the settlement agreement.
All of the provisions in my template settlement agreement are modifiable so it can be used to accommodate your unique circumstances. I’ve also included recommended language that can be used to fill in specific sections, such as the terms of settlement compensation.
Who Should Use the Template Settlement Agreement?
My template settlement agreement was drafted to be used by individuals, or companies, seeking to resolve a legal dispute through a mutually agreed upon settlement.
Benefits of Using the Template Settlement Agreement
My settlement agreement template is appropriate to be used in situations whereby parties embroiled in a legal dispute want to resolve the dispute through an amicable resolution and need to memorialize the terms and conditions of a settlement.
If a legal dispute arises from the terms and conditions of the template settlement agreement, you may need to escalate the matter to litigation. If that situation arises, having an experienced attorney by your side can pay dividends. My legal services are available. If hired, I will be there for you every step of the way, offering clear communication, accurate legal guidance, and proactive solutions.

Ryenne S.
My name is Ryenne Shaw and I help business owners build businesses that operate as assets instead of liabilities, increase in value over time and build wealth. My areas of expertise include corporate formation and business structure, contract law, employment/labor law, business risk and compliance and intellectual property. I also serve as outside general counsel to several businesses across various industries nationally. I spent most of my early legal career assisting C.E.O.s, General Counsel, and in-house legal counsel of both large and smaller corporations in minimizing liability, protecting business assets and maximizing profits. While working with many of these entities, I realized that smaller entities are often underserved. I saw that smaller business owners weren’t receiving the same level of legal support larger corporations relied upon to grow and sustain. I knew this was a major contributor to the ceiling that most small businesses hit before they’ve even scratched the surface of their potential. And I knew at that moment that all of this lack of knowledge and support was creating a huge wealth gap. After over ten years of legal experience, I started my law firm to provide the legal support small to mid-sized business owners and entrepreneurs need to grow and protect their brands, businesses, and assets. I have a passion for helping small to mid-sized businesses and startups grow into wealth-building assets by leveraging the same legal strategies large corporations have used for years to create real wealth. I enjoy connecting with my clients, learning about their visions and identifying ways to protect and maximize the reach, value and impact of their businesses. I am a strong legal writer with extensive litigation experience, including both federal and state (and administratively), which brings another element to every contract I prepare and the overall counsel and value I provide. Some of my recent projects include: - Negotiating & Drafting Commercial Lease Agreements - Drafting Trademark Licensing Agreements - Drafting Ambassador and Influencer Agreements - Drafting Collaboration Agreements - Drafting Service Agreements for service-providers, coaches and consultants - Drafting Master Service Agreements and SOWs - Drafting Terms of Service and Privacy Policies - Preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries - Drafting Employee Handbooks, Standard Operations and Procedures (SOPs) manuals, employment agreements - Creating Employer-employee infrastructure to ensure business compliance with employment and labor laws - Drafting Independent Contractor Agreements and Non-Disclosure/Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements - Conducting Federal Trademark Searches and filing trademark applications - Preparing Trademark Opinion Letters after conducting appropriate legal research - Drafting Letters of Opinion for Small Business Loans - Drafting and Responding to Cease and Desist Letters I service clients throughout the United States across a broad range of industries.
