How we help

Bringing people on and rewarding them with equity touches a few different bits of law, and most founders would rather not stitch it together themselves. We cover the lot, with a fixed fee agreed before we start and a qualified solicitor on the matter.

EMI is the standard way UK startups give their team upside, and getting the scheme set up correctly matters for the tax treatment everyone is relying on. On the people side, the difference between getting IR35 right and wrong is real money and real risk, and we will tell you straight which side of the line an arrangement sits on. The work splits three ways:

  1. 01

    Equity

    EMI option schemes, other share option arrangements and share transfers.

  2. 02

    People

    Employment contracts, contractor and consultancy agreements.

  3. 03

    IR35

    Status assessment and compliance, with a straight answer on where you stand.
