Issuing equity to employees and choosing the  right  plan for your LLC can seem like a daunting task. Let us  make it simple by decoding the different equity plans available.

Ownership stake in a company can help LLCs attract and retain employees—and ensure they are invested in the company’s success.

In this event we chatted with a law firm partner, Wendy Moore from Perkins and Coie LLP, who works with many companies to set up their equity incentive plans as an Executive Compensation and Benefits attorney.

  • Phantom equity
  • Unit appreciation rights (UARs)
