Whether the count is 10 employees or 10,000, companies throughout the United States depend on Goodwin for strategic and effective advice on all aspects of ERISA and executive compensation programs. We work with clients and investors in a range of industries, both public and private, including technology and life sciences companies, banks and other financial services companies, REITs, hospitality companies, and private equity and venture-backed companies. As a real testament to the reputation our practice has in the market, we are frequently hired by boards and compensation committees as special compensation counsel even when we do not serve as their general counsel.

Goodwin’s ERISA and Executive Compensation lawyers counsel on the full range of tax, accounting, corporate and securities law issues that arise in structuring, implementing and administering equity-based compensation, incentive compensation and other employee benefit plans and arrangements, particularly in the context of M&A transactions, early- and late-stage financings, and initial public offerings. And as the breakneck pace of technology disrupts industries around the world, we partner with clients to embrace the promise and potential of innovation to make a profound and lasting impact.
