Top 10 of 3,549 law firms for Employee Shares, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Employee shares and share schemes cover the ways a employer can grant or reward staff with shares, options or other equity rewards. A solicitor in this area advises on the design, eligibility, tax implications and administration of schemes such as share options and tax-advantaged plans like EMI. They draft the scheme rules, option grant letters, and all official documentation, review employment contracts and post-termination restrictions, and help ensure the scheme complies with corporate governance, company law and HMRC rules. The work may involve negotiating with trustees, handling amendments to plans, and advising on dispersal or exercise of options.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decisions revolve around triggering events, tax consequences for individuals and the company, and the consequences of exercising or forfeiting options. A solicitor provides guidance on compliant scheme operation, potential penalties for mismanaging awards, and the regulatory framework that shapes when and how shares can be issued, transferred or withheld.

Florence Goodwin

Tagged solicitor Florence Goodwin

I first used the services of SME, over 30 years ago, after the death of my husband. I used them for legal apects around my employment and redundancy. I have since used them three times for the sale/purchase of my house on a private basis and for three properties under my company of Lyons Group Ltd, jointly with my son. He too has since used them twice for sale/purchase of his private properties. On all occasions we have been very happy wioth the services and advice we have received.

Jason Pradhan

Tagged solicitor Jason Pradhan

Jason provided excellent support during a very stressful employment matter. His advice was clear, practical and strategic, and his guidance on the legal position and negotiation approach was instrumental in helping me achieve the outcome I did. He quickly helped me understand the options open to me, explained the risks in a way that was easy to understand, and helped me approach the process with much more confidence. I really appreciated not only his technical knowledge, but also his calm, thoughtful and human approach throughout. I would highly recommend Jason to anyone dealing with an employment dispute, especially if they need clear advice, strong strategy and practical judgement.
