Executive Compensation Plans & Agreements
Our Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation (EBEC) attorneys generally focus on two separate but related areas—employee benefits and executive compensation. We advise corporations, boards of directors, private equity firms, and executives on all legal, design, drafting, negotiation, and compliance aspects of executive compensation matters. We advise corporations, firms, fiduciaries, executives, administrators, governmental entities, and financial institutions on innovative and traditional employee retirement and health and welfare benefits programs. Our substantial experience and over 50 years of involvement in the EBEC field have given us a deep understanding of the evolution of benefits law and the market for executive compensation.

What Is a Qualified Retirement Plan?
A qualified retirement plan is a retirement plan established by an employer that is designed to provide retirement income to designated employees and their beneficiaries, which meets certain IRS Code requirements in terms of both form and operation. Common plan types are 401(k) plans, pension plans, and profit-sharing plans. A qualified retirement plan may allow for both employer and employee contributions. Employers must follow procedures to ensure participants and beneficiaries are able to receive their benefits. They must also stay apprised of changes in retirement plan laws and regulations. Qualified retirement plans provide certain tax advantages to employers and tax deferral advantages to employees who are contributing. Taxes on earnings from the contributions are also deferred until the employee withdraws them from the plan.

The Privacy Rule has set national standards for the protection of certain types of health information. The Security Rule established security standards for protecting consumers’ health information that is stored or transferred electronically. The health care Security Rule outlines the operational safeguards that organizations must implement to keep protected electronic health information secure.
