Retirement Plans

Overview

Rules governing employer-sponsored retirement plans are numerous, occasionally overlapping and invariably complex. They may include ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code, and state laws, and might implicate international laws and treaties for international employers. We help employers navigate this complex and changing landscape and its legal and operational impact on retirement plans.

We can help you design, implement, and administer a broad spectrum of qualified and other tax-favored retirement plans, breaking down complexities and concerns to elemental issues. Our recommendations are practical as well as forward-looking, designed to satisfy legal compliance obligations while minimizing your risk of claims and potential exposure. We work closely with you and your service providers to establish administrative procedures and processes that help ensure plan compliance. And we counsel clients on related ERISA matters, including developing best-practice fiduciary governance structures, navigating the fiduciary litigation landscape, and managing complex prohibited transaction issues. Should mistakes occur, we identify appropriate solutions and implement procedures to avoid their recurrence.
