About

Provided by Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton

As federal and state laws governing benefits and compensation grow more complex, it is critical for companies to have highly experienced counsel to develop sophisticated plans in all areas of employee benefits. Our attorneys offer consultation on executive and broad-based benefit plan design in keeping with all relevant regulatory demands. The transactional dimension of our practice includes evaluating benefit programs and advising on strategies to contain costs, limit liability, and protect benefits during the course of a merger or acquisition. We also represent clients facing government and private party litigation and state and federal agency adjudicatory proceedings.
