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.

Emma O Meara

Tagged solicitor Emma O Meara

I was recently made redundant and asked Sherrards Solicitors to review my redundancy agreement. My case was handled by Emma O'Meara, who was incredibly thorough and made everything clear throughout the process. She even reviewed documents on her day off, which I really appreciated. After the agreement was signed, an amendment was needed, and Emma kindly handled it at no extra cost—something I’ve never experienced with any other solicitor. Her support genuinely made a difficult situation much easier. Highly recommended. Thank you, Emma!

Daniel Woodman

Tagged solicitor Daniel Woodman

I had a meeting with Daniel regarding an employment issue. He was approachable and supportive throughout the process. I felt that he gave me clear, constructive advice about how to conclude an upsetting chapter at work. He allowed me to discuss my concerns and feelings; he listened well; and he made me feel that I could move forward with my life.
