I was employed by a UK company through their US office in
Chicago IL in 2001. I was granted stock options prior to
the company IPO on the UK exchange. I have tried for
years to get information from the company on how to
retrieve my options but they changed accountants 4 times
in 6 years – and every time I had to start over again with
the newest accountant. The value of the shares is now
very substantial. Now I am no longer employed by the
company and they are closing their US office. I am not
sure I will ever get my stock. I am fairly certain the
company violated some employment law by not providing any
written info on the options program (other than the
original letter notifying me of the shares – signed by the
CEO). I have gone to the IL Attorney General’s site but
can’t find info on compensation. Any thoughts? Thanks –
