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.

Following a surprise meeting with my employer I was left feeling confused & unsure of my rights. Pam was recommended by a colleague. Immediately Pam met with me & put me at ease regarding the correct process & my rights. Within a few days Pam had everything settled & I was able to carry on.

I went through redundancy case. I was lost and completely shattered. Gina and her team worked very fast and in professional manner to solve my case. Everything was done perfect more than I expected. I am very grateful for their time and effort. The result was what I wanted. They definitely act in customer's interests. If I would need to use their service again, I would not hesitate. Great job!

Excellent solicitors and I’d recommend them to anyone. Chris was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable and I had 100% confidence in them when dealing with my situation. I’d have no hesitation in using Johnson and Boon again and I’d advise anyone looking for legal advice to look no further. Absolutely brilliant Gareth
