Top 10 of 483 law firms for Employee Ownership Trusts, Pensions Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Employee ownership trusts, or EOTs, are a way for a company to sell or assign ownership to its employees through a discretionary trust that holds shares for the workforce. A solicitor helps design the structure, draft the trust deed and articles, and ensure the arrangement complies with relevant law and tax rules so that employees benefit from ownership without triggering unintended liabilities. The work also covers advising on the exit strategy for any selling shareholder and coordinating with accountants and the company to implement ongoing governance and reporting obligations.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor drafts the trust deed, share schemes and accompanying documentation, handles filings and registrations, and coordinates with HMRC for the tax position of the seller and employees. They ensure the trust holds shares on behalf of employees, set governance arrangements, and advise on annual valuations, distributions, and compliance with the Finance Act 2014 and Companies Act requirements. They liaise with the company, trustees, and professional advisers to address ongoing reporting and governance matters.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tanya Bloomfield, a highly knowledgeable solicitor specialising in military pensions. Her expertise was evident from our first meeting, as she navigated complex regulations with ease and provided clear, comprehensive advice tailored to my situation. Her attentiveness and professionalism made the entire process seamless, and I felt supported at every step. I'm extremely pleased with the outcome of my case and confident in her abilities. I would highly recommend Tanya to anyone seeking guidance, especially in military pension matters.
