Practice Area
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 Uniform Grant Guidance?
In 2014, the Federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards to Non-Federal Entities, commonly known as the Uniform Grant Guidance. The Uniform Grant Guidance is a government-wide, authoritative set of rules and requirements for federal awards intended to guard against the risk of waste, fraud, and abuse while reducing the administrative burden for non-federal entities receiving federal awards.

Greenwashing is the act of making false, misleading, or exaggerated claims about an entity’s environmental or sustainability record or practices, including the environmental impact of operations, products, or services. Greenwashing reflects a gap between the symbolic and substantive action taken by a company or product in order to gain an environmentally friendly image. For example, greenwashing occurs when a company spends time and money advertising goods or services as environmentally friendly, closer to nature, or otherwise “green,” when the impact on the environment is not materially distinct from other comparable goods or services.
