McDermott's Chicago practice handles everything connected with employee benefits: retirement plans, fringe benefits, ESOPs, executive compensation and fiduciary and plan investment matters.
McDermott has traditionally invested heavily in and attached a lot of importance to employee benefits. As a result, clients come directly to us for employee benefits advice. We have capability in several specialist areas of employee benefits, such as cash balance and pension equity plans, welfare benefits, wellness programs and alternative investments by pension plans.
McDermott has the best and largest healthcare and employee benefits practices in Chicago. We are, therefore, able to offer dedicated health benefits specialists who advise numerous health and welfare plans. Our client roster features a large number of hospital and medical provider clients. With continued government focus on health care reform/repeal, advising on employee and retiree medical plans remains a busy part of our practice.
As well as a large team handing non-contentious employee benefits planning, we have an additional team of partners specializing in employee benefits and ERISA litigation – one of the top national practices in this area.
Our team has a niche advising on same-sex partner benefits and the implementation of benefit programs for domestic partners of employees. Partner Todd Solomon works with businesses in Chicago in jointly advocating for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights in the workplace.
