Employee Benefits

Minnesota public and private companies alike—from large corporations and fast-growing start-ups to professional firms and nonprofits—count on Maslon attorneys for their most important, complex and time-sensitive benefits and compensation challenges. They like the agility and accessibility of our highly experienced professionals.

When dealing with benefits planning, operations, and compliance issues, employers and executive employees value Maslon's ability to make even the most complex challenges understandable and actionable. We offer timely, practical solutions for a full spectrum of benefits needs: from general counseling and plan design to maximizing tax benefits for key employees; from curing a plan's defects under tax laws and ERISA to resolving disputes with government agencies.

You'll have easy access to experienced professionals who know the intricacies of varied retirement and deferred incentive plans and will provide plain-language memos and plan documents in custom-designed or prototype format.
