Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation

About

Provided by Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, PC

Employee benefits and executive compensation packages are as different as the companies that provide them. Plan administrators turn to Baker Donelson for our ability to understand every angle of the current laws governing employee benefits and executive compensation, and in turn, we seek to create plans that are best suited for their individual needs. Our labor and employment attorneys partner with our tax attorneys to provide comprehensive and up to date advice for employers and create pension and benefit plans that best meet our clients' business objectives in compliance with tax regulations.

When litigation occurs, we defend clients against administrative claims and all related types of controversy. We routinely represent plan administrators and claim administrators in the defense of ERISA disability claims, and represent employers and insurers in claims for benefits and class actions premised on alleged breaches of fiduciary duties under ERISA. Our clients include manufacturing and distribution businesses, financial institutions, technology companies, health care companies, hospitals and medical service providers, educational institutions, and non-profit and government employers, as well as a number of public companies in various industries.
