Overview

Burr & Forman has extensive experience dealing with all aspects of executive compensation and employee benefits. Whether it's a favorable tax treatment or attracting and retaining quality employees, employees and employers often favor compensation in the form of employee benefits rather than current cash compensation. Burr's attorneys advise and represent clients on all phases of employee benefits planning and administration.

Our attorneys know the law and how to apply it to our clients' plans and needs. We also know how to temper the law's application based upon particular circumstances and how to represent and pursue our client's interests before federal regulatory agencies. In addition, should litigation occur, we have a strong group of labor & employment attorneys ready to bring in.

  • Church and governmental entities
