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.

Tagged solicitor David Charles

Going through redundancy can be quite a challenging time in one's life, as I found out. All the staff I met at Darby & Darby made a personally traumatic time much less stressful. The advice was given by David was in a clear warm friendly manner that helped me fully understand and appreciate the process and made what was a trying time much easier. The staff who dealt with me, made me feel welcome and were always friendly, supportive and helpful.
