About

Provided by Baker McKenzie

Baker McKenzie is known for providing a stand-out client service and partners with some of the world's largest companies on their share schemes both locally and globally. The firm's combination of experts in the UK and outside the UK allows us to help clients with complex cross border transactions, identifying the implications of transactions for share plan participants and on the action points needed.  

Jeremy Edwards is a prominent adviser to London Stock Exchange listed companies in relation to the structure and disclosure of remuneration for directors and senior executives and (supported by Gillian Parnell and other team members) has taken a leading role in monitoring and exploring the wide range of recent executive remuneration reforms.

The team offers cutting edge employee tax advice, which (allied with the employment practice) takes a prominent role on cases involving "gig economy" issues. The team also provides connected/holistic advice to share plan clients, such as on the areas of gender pay reporting and data protection, being (in many cases) the first to inform the market of impending developments and to offer solutions to clients.
