Overview

Our attorneys guide employers on projects driven by special needs, including employee benefits issues raised by mergers and acquisitions, workforce reductions, equity incentive programs for employers with expanding foreign operations and shareholder relation issues related to say-on-pay proposals, for the full lifecycle of a company.

We can shepherd companies through all aspects of executive compensation, including public disclosure under SEC rules; institutional shareholder and proxy advisory firm “hot buttons”; the design, drafting and implementation of a wide range of compensation plans; and the tax, securities law, labor and corporate governance aspects of compensation programs and policies. We have extensive experience in formulating and negotiating employment and severance arrangements for senior executives, including change in control agreements and indemnification agreements, and dealing with “golden parachute” issues.
