What Are EMI Option Schemes And How Do They Work

September 17

EMI option schemes are intended to help companies retain valued employees and to reward the employees for investing their time and skills in helping the company grow.

Happy customers

Simon Brooks, along with Jonathan Lea, helped us secure certification for the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS), which we needed to do retrospectively and without having obtained pre-approval.This was not a straightforward application, and I am sure we could not have achieved HMRC approval so smoothly without their attention to detail, forensic analysis of our application, and encyclopaedic knowledge of the scheme rules. Simon also tidied up our historic filings with Companies House quickly and efficiently. Simon and Jonathan did a first-class job.

Recently used JLN services at The Clean Space. Thanks for turning things around in the extremely short timeframes. Our CEO Charlie Mowat was very impressed. We are happy customers. Callum Ritchie was excellent, extremely efficient, clear with information and always available to advise.

I had the pleasure of a two week work placement at The Jonathan Lea Network. Each team member is highly motivated, knowledgeable and personable. Their diligent yet efficient approach to matters, results in client issues/problems being solved in a timely and affordable way. Would highly recommend!

Amazing service from an excellent team that worked late and at last minute notice whilst we completed on an international software sale in December 2020.The very best law firm I've ever dealt with

We used The Jonathan Lea Network to get us out of a what initially seemed an impossible situation with a poorly written unfair B2B contract.What can i say other than i was extremely impressed by their knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail.Andreea was absolutely lovely to deal with, very efficient and it is clear that she really does care about your situation.After just a few extremely well written letters from Andreea we settled on something we have been trying to do ourselves for over a year.

Jonathan Lea Network's stellar performance in supporting a complex EIS application to its successful conclusion has been much appreciated. Would certainly recommend.

Andreea Rusu from JLN did an excellent job on getting our SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance and the compliance statements. She is very detail oriented and knows the process very well and asks all the right questions. We got the Advance Assurance in a record two weeks and the compliance statements in almost the same time. I highly recommend Andreea and overall The Jonathan Lea Network.
