Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs)

Employee Stock Ownership Plans create a market for private company stock and allow employees to share in ownership. Creative ESOP designs can significantly improve corporate financial planning. If a business owner decides to retire or sell the business, certain ESOP structures allow the owner significant tax benefits. Butterfield SchechterLLP represents ESOP clients across the United States in all aspects of ESOP transactions.
